Roadrunner Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Brand new to this scooby ownership lark, and quite frankly Im driving like a learner again! Is anyone brave enough (and local enough - Im in Runcorn) to come out with me as a passenger and give me a few tips? It makes noises I dont recognise, it appears to really hate low revs, and Im driving like a 70yr old granny whos borrowed the car! My average speed has dropped to queue forming levels! Help required - would be nice to get from a to b without the police stopping me for kerb crawling! Clare x x Link to comment
dave_thorbinson Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Welcome to scoob ownership Clare. I'm 15 mins away in Rainhill if that's close enough... you can compare your car's noises to mine if that'll help. Drop me an email (david.thorbinson@btitnternet.com) if you like... Little H on this forum helped me out when I first got questions about mine, so I'm happy to pass on the favour... Cheers, Dave.[H] Link to comment

*Andy* Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Clare, I work in Runcorn (Rocksavage) so could easily meet you at either lunchtime or after work, give me a ring if you want to arrange a time (07960 004715). There are a number of good bends on the expressways around Runcorn where you can put the car through its paces. Andy.[] Link to comment

Roadrunner Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 Dinner, drinks and a sugar daddy to pay for all the optimax I seem to be getting through! oh no thats not it! why oh why do I keep stalling this car? Ive not stalled any car for at least the last five yrs, why does this one not like me, I bought him presents, (up to now - new speakers, infinity all round, no rubbish, a flash wash system, new locks on garage, a tracker, megs detailer, ultra soft polishing mitt) hes been washed twice in the last 18 days, Im counting the number of days Ive owned him, Ive shown him love and affection.........Do you think Im trying to hard to please him?
