scottravenhill Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I remember when I went to buy my car and I couldn't pull away without stalling it, the guy had to drive it out of his yard. Even my dad couldn't do it! Maybe its coz the bite on these is so low! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilkesyMB6 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Mine bites low, I'm just used to it now. Funny watching other people move it and counting how many times they stall it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 guess they all are low at this age, but mine had progressed into a nasty sqeeking noise accompanied by a crunchy gritty feeling to the pedal. awful. so had to do summit about it.
