Hi all
just got myself a S3 109 station wagon, 2.6 petrol / LPG - well I think it's a staion wagon, but all the insurance companies I tried say there isn't a 3 door 2.6 station wagon, only 5 door....
first landy, so I'm on the learning curve!
I've had a drive around, she goes up to 50 easily enough, but gets very noisy (sounds like transmission noise to me) - does that sound about right?! what sort of speed should I get? and roughly what mpg?
Is it possible to fit an overdrive to the gearbox to give lower revs at higher (!) speeds, and save my ears a bit!
going to have to do a few jobs, starting with the exhaust leaking at the manifold joint, and the back box having more holes than metal, so no doubt I'll be asking endless stupid questions!
cheers
