Quantum 5th Gear September 9, 2012 Share September 9, 2012 Hello Chervolet club members, I bought a 2nd hand Optra Magnum 1.6M, there are few doubts need solutions, 1. 5th gear, Speedometer 100km/h, tecometer at 3000rpm? My previous sunny 1.6M, 100km/h, at 2500rpm only 2. Aircon compressor always running, without compressor cut in/out as cabin temperature changing (is it normal for non-climate control AC?) 3. Aircon fan speed dropping as cabin temperature dropping, but fan speed no increasing while cabin temperature went up. 4. Radio was locked by code, where can get the unlock code? thanks ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
