Gearbox
« on: 21 February 2013, 20:51 »
right this has been annoying me since i got my car i think i might have a dirty D gear box instead of a petrol one, in 2nd, 3rd and 4th running is fine. In reverse and 1st have to rev quite high to move smoothly or it just judders. Also in 5th if i go below 60mph the car judders as if it was away to stall. Noticed that when doing 60mph im doing 2k rpm is that right :\ as most cars ive owned are around 3k rpm when doing 60.

cheers for any help :)

At 2k revs top gear mine hits 48mph.
I dont have a clutch or gearbox issue.

Doesn't help but FYI.  :tongue:
