32Bit QGIS 2.10 Problems with Gdal WMS TMS google maps layer

I have been using gdal wms layers to view various basemaps in QGIS. I am using this technique rather than open layers because this I can reproject gdal WMS layers as needed.

When I get close to the max zoom on my google layer my images become discolored (sometimes all in blues, other times yellows). I have checked my layer settings to ensure that my color band settings are correct.

I only have this problem when using a google maps layer, I have not seen any problems with other gdal wms layers.

I have checked for this problem in both the 32bit and 64 bit versions of qgis on multiple windows 7 computers. I only observed this problem on the 32 bit version.

Also is there any way to make qgis log my tile requests?

The layer xml is below.
