Hi I have a problem where my car seems to be holding back some days in all gears and others just 3rd and 4th. Nearly always 3rd and 4th gear. Seems to have plenty of power in 1st and 2nd gear to pull away but then meh. Also not sure if it's normal but anything below 3k is useless for accelerating.
Example
Pull away smoothly in 1st and get up to 3k then bam lots of power
2nd all power 3k+
3rd flat spot st 2.5k and max power from 3k+ but seems holding back
4th flat spot 2.5k and max power 3k+ but seems holding back
In the 2.5k flat spot the exhaust makes very deep drone noise
I can cruise no problem below the 3k power but it struggles to get over the 2.5k hump I'm sure this car has more to give
