NeilTindle Posted November 8, 2004 Report Posted November 8, 2004 I know this is for people 'thinking of buying a Galaxy' but I've got a question about one I've just bought.Previously I had a R*****t 2.2 Turbo diesel which I thought went very well even though it had done 215000 miles. The petrol Galaxy 2.0 GLXon the other hand has done 59000 and couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. I wasn't expecting the same diesel grunt but think it should go better than it does. It seems to rev ok if I wait long enough but there's just no oomph. Is this how it is with a Galaxy and I should get used to rice pudding with skin on. The wife on the other hand thinks it's great.

Ian in Northampton Posted November 8, 2004 Report Posted November 8, 2004 My first Galaxy was an N-registered 2.0 litre petrol. I took it to the Lake District and it wouldn't go up hills... Not sure if my experience is typical, or whether things have improved since. Quote
NeilTindle Posted November 8, 2004 Author Report Posted November 8, 2004 Oh dear. I was hoping it was something simple to fix, not 'they're all like that Sir'. Quote
seatkid Posted November 8, 2004 Report Posted November 8, 2004 Nah, sounds as if something's wrong. Does a petrol Galaxy have a MAF? (sorry, I can't be bothered to look at the TIS at the mo...) Quote
NeilTindle Posted November 8, 2004 Author Report Posted November 8, 2004 Yes, it does have a MAF. I've read on here that it seems to cause a lot of problems. Is it possible to check or repair it? Quote
