    Dave,
    I've always liked the tacho on the td5 to concentrate on keeping it at peak torque when offroad. Being my first diesel I had to learn that "sinking your foot in" wasn't the best option. (Yes, I managed to overheat the brakes (ETC) going up hill )
    Being my first 2.25 D, I had anticipated that the tacho would help me understand the engine a little more. I take it, you just work on decibels.

    no its an entirely different beast to a td5...


    youd have to be making a concerted effort to kill it.

    But yep I drive all vehicles by the seat of my pants, the gauges should only be a back up to what you already know and to assist in you're initial "calibration"

    If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
    If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.
