The V8 petrol doesn't snap cranks like the V6 diesel does.
I was talking about v8 diesel
You said 3.0L which is a V6 diesel. A V8 diesel is 3.6L and doesn't snap cranks, but suffers turbo and EGR failures instead.

I don’t see the sense in that. At 70mph you have a mean average of 8 3/4 mph per gear. Seems a lot of faffing about unnecessarily

Yeah, but stick it in sports mode on the flappy paddles and give it hell.....now it is fun.
Cheers
Hardly faffing as all you do is push down on the loud pedal
Unless of course you really want to “hooligan” it and use the sport mode+paddles as ^^^ , then

Fooled by marketing hype you nutters.
Sports mode - for when your 6.3 just isn’t enough

So we all waffled along and had a bit of chat
. You know how things waffle on to fill in the time till OP comes back.J
