Hi all,
Ok so here is the thing the second gear in my GP 1.2 seems very strange.
this is what happens.
I can slow down to almost 3MPH (I'm guessing here) but no more than 5 in second Gear, I push the clutch and the break, but if I don't come to a complete stop I can release both the break & the clutch and the car does not stall not even judder, but it actually gathers speed (Even up Hills) to about 10 MPH and then just stays constant!!! and rolls along.
Its like its an Auto but its not.
Friends have said its because the second Gear is set to high, but are not sure. Some think it may be some kind of town feature so your not on and off the clutch all the time or in and out of 1st & 2nd gear.
I have tried other manual cars, and they either stall right away or lose speed & stall, oppisite to what mine does.
If its normal then I like it, but there is nothing said about it in the manual, or am I missing something. I am a new driver and all, but even in my Learner car Ford Focus 1.8 Diesel is would stall if I did that.
So is this normal, or do I have an issue.
Thanks
Jason.
