Hi..just figured out why my cars been so noisy on motorways and using loads fuel ..as i have been over the years conditioed to 5 gear cars i have been unconciously been driving the 340 in 3rd gear thinking it was 5th..i dont think i would have noticed if it wasnt the fuel economy dropping down..i am ok when it comes to urban roads but just the motorways i need to get used and remember its only got 4 gears..
i have a question for the midland 300 series guys...any trustworthy/good crypton tuners around? i need to get car perfect again ...i am not sure why but since i put Asda petrol in its got a slight shake when idling..normally i use BP or shell..

This is a joke right?

That makes me feel well old Many cars had 4 gears as standard, right up into the mid-nineties ...

Fuel economy should improve a tad now and noise on the motorway will decrease a bit!

Hehe...I did go for 5th a couple of times in the 343 at first.

I've only used one Cryton tuner in the midlands, and he's not just around the corner from you. To be honest though, there's only really one thing to adjust which is likely to be causing this problem, and it's fairly easy once you get the hang of it - I'm sure we can guide you through it. Get those hands dirty

cheers
