dpm Posted March 11, 2008 Report Posted March 11, 2008 Hello all, Just joined the forum. I am on my second Galaxy. Both 115PS Zetec. The first was a 2001 and the second is a 2003. Current mileage 84k. 2 kids, Wife and Mother in Law. I have noted a few threads of interest - the issue with loss of power due to Turbo clogging up with soot. This happened on the first car but hasn't happened on the current one. I asked a friend who is a mechanic and his solution was to rev engine for a few mins at about 2.5k revs. Alternatively go for a "good" spin. The other is to do with the auxiliary heater. I have two questions. 1. Is the gear box or final drive different on Galaxii from 2003 Plus. I note revs at 70mph is approx 200 lower than was on 2001 car. 2. I live in Ireland. I couldn't find a link to select when registering. I hope I am permitted to belong the forum. D Quote
