Close Ratio Gearbox

[Colin Reed]

Thanks Bob but can we avoid the thread drift please... I'm just looking for advice on the gear ratio selection for my Cabriolet...

chheers...

Someone likes Bob’s post, look at his reputation! 72

Yes, it's all the same person liking everything that Bob says. 

Nothing against Bob's wisdom but it does make the "reputation" score utterly meaningless

Yes, that why I posted, I too have nothing against Bob, just wondering if the other forum member thinks it's the done thing to commend every post

Sorry for the further thread drift.

I have never looked before but at a quick check the rating system to be little used on this Forum - a peculiarly American item like 'friending' and usually quite pointless if overused.

I have only ever driven a Seven with standard three speed gearbox, so close ratios don't come into it- when the noise becomes unbearable in second (around 30 mph) - quickly into top  

Have a nice day   

Hi Tony,
Your lucky mine has a warning level as well
