G’day everyone, I‘M returning to the tribe. I used to have an AU lpg Forte and followed Uncle Ken’s adventures religiously. Then got a green Barra BF, then fell off the wagon as I didn’t need a car.
But I just picked up an AU1 XR8. I’m so happy.

Hi all. Thanks for the add.
Newish to Fords, although had a liking for them since I was a kid.

I bought a 2017 Mustang about 2 years ago with Tickford rims, exhaust and coilovers new from the dealership. My new daily is a 2002 BA XR6.

And working for H*lden in their complaints department at Fishermans Bend also was a motivation.

Gidday.

Mark Molloy, (Central Coast NSW) here, new owner of 2013 SZ Titanium AWD Diesel.

I used to be a Holden devotee, but my bro (a Ford fanboy for many years) convinced me on the Territory. So far liking it, good power, good space and nice manners on the road.
I'll be keeping an eye on the forums as I gain knowledge on the vehicle.
Regards

Patto 1 · 27-08-2020, 09:02 PM

Hi all,
Changing out spark plugs on SY Mk II territory, petrol 4spd auto.
Coil packs breaking (?) coming apart neatly at at exactly the same spot during removal.
Top half coming out with spring dangling from bottom, bottom tube section remaining in rocker cover.
Hints and advice please.
Tried finding post or thread with this situation but failed, I’m no tech head!
Regards,
symk2

G,day and thanks for adding me to the forum. Have been a long time Ford fan and currently have an SY Territory which is a major reason for joining the forum as a lot of Territory owners will be able to relate to! I'm hoping to get a lot of tips and hopefully even add some. Cheers.

Xmbluebird · 01-09-2020, 05:21 PM

Gday, wife bought xm ute in 2014, finally on the road this week after full rebuild, pity rust protection wasn't high on the list in those days but now the finished ute is pretty special and cool to drive.

Jinxy, Hi mate, welcome to the F. Forums, I know you will get a lot of knowledge and experience to keep that Ford Territory humming. I'm an old codger with an AU2 and a G6E Eco-boost (best Falcon I have had and I'm on my seventh one now). Cheers and Happy motoring.

Hi

New member
I know it’s been asked many times but am having troubles decoding my recent purchased f100 1977
Any help would be great

Harritory Turbo · 02-09-2020, 11:06 AM

Hi all. I've joined to hopefully get my 2006 Territory Turbo back on the road after a coolant milkshake/transmission issue. The car has its quirks but is an absolute rocket!
My first car was an XP van, followed by XR station wagon, then an XC sedan.
Great site with fantastic tech info.

A lot of members use Postimage.... https://postimages.org

Chunka · 02-09-2020, 11:00 PM

Thanks Gasolane,
I got the image into postimages. Having trouble getting the picture from there to the post.

Chunka, I just fixed up you RTV post so the pic displays. Nice ute.

If your on a laptop right click in the image, select properties and use the address that displays there. Otherwise what you did was right.

The above gives you the direct address to the image, rather than address of the postimg page that is displaying your image. I hope that makes sense.

[EDIT] just read above that your on an ipad. Tap on the image in postimg, select copy.
Come back to the forum, use the insert image

thing, tap and paste. Should all be good.

Hi all

Long time lurker, first time poster. Was wondering if anyone has successfully gotten the FGII ICC to display the GT-F Gauges yet? I have been searching for days but have come up with nothing.

Any help would be great

Cheers!

Boof · 11-09-2020, 02:19 PM

G'day all! What an excellent site to be a part of. I've got the pleasure of driving around in a factory LPG AU2 ute at the moment. She's got a fair few issues that I'm slowly working through, so I'll be onsite fairly often trying to make my life a bit easier. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute to make some other members lives a little easier too.

Keep safe in these troubled times.
Paul

murco · 15-09-2020, 06:30 PM

G'day everyone.

New member here. I tbink I've been here before years ago when I owned an xy 4x ute and the internet was young, and I was younger 🤣🤣🤣

Currently I have a BF Ii ute for work and an XF Feral ute for fun. Previously I've had an EA XR6 replica, NA fairlaine, an AU wagon, and I got driven home from the hospital when I was born in 72 in mum and dads XP wagon....so no hope....I had to love my fords

Looking forward to being a part of the forum again.
