unusal dci 175 feature

[R20 CWH]

this is very weird, however in neutral or stationary in gear, car warmed up and not cold the car will only rev to 3k in 1st gear. This isnt when moving, just stationary if you press the loud pedal.

Must be to stop too much torque getting dumped on clutch, but very weird. Only found out today as it was sitting after a run and someone asked how noisy it was at higher revs,m then it wouldnt rev above 3k unless on the move!

weird!!

Broken it already?

Wish they'd stick the 175dci engine in the Clio, then I'd be happier. Tailed a 197 along the M9 last night and it looks just right.

Love the 335D! Good choice

wouldnt be a bad shout, but apparently its not on the cards. Even the 2.0 150 unit remaps to 190 odd and then a bit more with intercooler.

Come reno get your finger out!!

nah

miss coilovers though.

Thank f**k i never sold the clio, that would have been hard to stomach!!

hmm yes. Good to see that these are still steadily declining, can get them for under 25k now

Pretty commen these days in high torque diesel units mate, its so folk like you don't turn the box into a bowl of melted chocolate racin all the wee nobs round the the 'duelys' in EK...

'granny shiftin, not double clutchin like you're supposed to, you almost had me?!'

 

[R20 CWH]

hmm not a fan to be honest.

:dapprove:

Spose it can be viewed as launch control?! Equally pointless as well.

Diesels don't rev much over 3k anyway do they?

 

[.GAZ.]

transits do the same!!

5250, but completely pointless

probably go faster as well, especially if its a courier van... :rasp:

Really? Bloody hell, I thought it was 4500. But I suppose most of the power has gone after 4ish?

BHP wins in the pub, torque wins on the road/track...especially in a straight line when cruising in 6th at 2,000rpm, knock it down to 4th and ride on the wave of (what seems like endless) torque..

I want a diesel and remapped.

I followed a Honda CR-V (the 4x4 thing) the other day, and from low speed, he could out accelerate me easy until I climbed up to 4k plus.

aye and thats without a remap. Its 5500rpm with map. Dies at 4750, totally pointless going beyond that as its doing nowt.

360Nm is pretty handy though. 500Nm is way better though.

you dont really.

Fairly souless and boring.

Father in laws 535D is not dull after 4k revs at all
