Fargo Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 you go to 110-120 leptons for an extended time..... would you get white smoke emitting from the rear of the engine, possibly coming from the gear box..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 i wouldn't have thought so. what sort of rpm does that equate to? must be getting near the limiter as i'm sure that's the fastest i'd got without the autobox changing up to fourth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Not much good to the gearbox at all I'd thought! Try driving a manual in 3rd/4th at that speed, I'm sure it'd gone off pop by then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I'm fairly sure that around 120 is redline in 3rd for an auto. In which case I'd imagine you could have any number of things go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 ive only ever driven it with the OD off... now im a little more educated about OD.. Effectively meaning you've never used 4th gear Your fuel bills must be crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
