cold damp air...
« on: 26 November 2007, 21:01:58 »

no not talking about the contents of JamesV6's petrol tank....  ;)

Last night, it was about 6 degree's and damn air with a little rain here and there, damn the car wanted to fly last night. Just kept pulling and pulling

It was abolsulty flying, i came back from London heavily loaded in the car, but going back last night i was empty, but it just goes to show what a difference cold damp air makes to the running of a car, wish it was like that every day and night!

Now I know your tyres have zero grip, but I doubt the lack of traction was because they left the ground ::)

Flying and 2.2 Omega are not 2 words I'd ever use in the same sentence ;)

The v6 autos with the software update change predictably I find. No complaints. AA's is the only 2.2 Auto I've 'tested' well, so can't comment too much on those, but seemed OK to me.  Now tractor autos....
