Guest yurir Posted September 8, 2003 Report Posted September 8, 2003 Hi everyone, I have a '98 2.3 Auto, and as a matter of interest I was wondering what sort of revs. to speed (in top gear) others are getting on a similar model ?It would be interesting to hear from manual boxers also. At 70mph, the revs go to around 3300rpm, which seems a little high, comparing it to my old '88 2.3 Volvo 740. Otherwise it seems to drive fine and the temperature is fine. Does anyone know if the Autobox locks in top gear, or is that only with 5 speed boxes ? Many thanks,Yuri. Quote
pj_andrew Posted September 9, 2003 Report Posted September 9, 2003 I have the manual 2.3, and the revs sounds about right. Quote

Ivor_E_Tower Posted September 10, 2003 Report Posted September 10, 2003 Does anyone have the "mph per 1000 rpm" figures for all gears for the different engine/gearbox combinations? Quote
