Mivec9 1st Gear May 20, 2005 Share May 20, 2005 high chance u need to change the choke. cost me $20. maybe u try adjust higher rpm, and monitor first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear May 20, 2005 Share May 20, 2005 Quote Have to rev a bit higher at between 1k - 1.6k to change gear. If normal rev to above 2k, the engine will roar. Last time, my car hit 90km at 2.5k rpm. Now 90km at between 1.6k - 1.8k rpm. What u saying here don't make sense??? How can the RPM b lower now when travelling at 90km/h. Do u mean u r in the same gear (ie. 5th gear on the manual gearbox)? If so, it's NOT POSSIBLE. Only explanation is the RPM meter is faulty. Get it checked.

Car cannot even move off in 1st gear with only 1k rpm. Looking at his posts, I thing he is trying to make a fool of us. Or he has bought some strange car.

Pisces69 6th Gear May 21, 2005 Share May 21, 2005 Sorry buddy, but what u have posted here don't make any sense at all. My only suggestion to u is to send your car to a reliable workshop to get all your problems checked by a professional. Not much more advise I can give to u.
