Tomas4x4 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Howdy all! Driving my 1996 300tdi manual disco down the bipass at 70mph gives me different readings on my rev counter, tody it was 2500rpm, last week it was 3000rpm and sometimes its 2250rpm all when its empty, this is baffling to me. Has anybody else experienced this or know what the cause is? Also the needle falls randoml;y then picks back up again, strange... Any hints or advice would be greatly appreciated as always! Cheers.
