I believe a question was asked of him earlier that he has still not answered...... So same principal.

Dan F · Oct 8th, 2005, 16:33

Lol, maybe! But I am just pointing out that no-one is any better than anyone else here.

lol.....Adam normally replys so quickly to a question put to him...maybe he just wants to avoid this one?

Who know's but maybe we should just let Don and Adam decide if they want to reply instead of replying for them.

And there we have it, ladies and gentlemen - never a truer word spoken. Not many "normal" Volvo drivers reach 5,000 - 6,000rpm on a daily basis. I certainly don't, in fact.. in the last month, I've probably hit 5,000rpm all of maybe once! I'm mainly interested in the power & torque from 1,500 - 4,500 rpm, as I suspect most people are?

I did that once, and had a bill for £1,966.00 for a new engine.

Bloody autobahns... ;)

If you never go above 4500 revs, buy a diesel.

Mind you then you would only use 3000 I suppose.....

They are there to be used you know. ;)
