Default Where am I able to Get TSB'S from?

As the title suggests, I am wondering where I am able to get the tech Service bulletins that go out to the Ford workshops, The two Ford service depts that I use are pretty out of the loop when I tell them about the ones I know about and now my curiosity has gotten the best of me, and I am wondering what issues I dont know about!!! any help would be greatly appreciated. I am looking specifically for the FG Falcon range, but could even narrow that down to 2010 FG XR6T

The only issue with our new FG XR6T is that no one has told me how to prevent the stains on my shorts that happen ever time i mash the accelerator pedal : and now the lil dint in the rear bumber http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...30#post4142130

My speed limiter is set to 120 - anything over that and she punches me in the arm.

i`d try, the bigger ford dealers, or the dealer where you bought the car from, go and have a chat to the manager of the place, have a chin wag, if he wants repeat business he might organise something for you.

They are meant to be confidential, that's why they won't give you copies...

Dealers are told not to hand them out...

They contain privledged information which could have liability issues for Ford if they get out.

There use to be heaps for BA, but FG I'snt as bad it seems.

Every manufacturer is the same.

Yeah, like the 'hot fix' for temporarily fixing leaking headlamps by drying them for a couple of hours, or allowing some play in front ball joints despite the workshop manual specifying no play.
