Can some help with the figures?
I just want to check I'm in top gear really.......
I have a V6 and at 70ish what revs should I be sitting at in top? Thanks. Is there a fact sheet or a set of gear ratios sitting somewhere?
Regards
Terry

Hi Terry,
Does this help........
(mph/2000rpm) for each
gear.
1st – 11.2MPH
2nd – 20.4MPH
3rd – 32.0MPH
4th – 50.3MPH
+/- 8%
Cheers..
