2. The Torque is, as most people have agreed, WAY too high. This is again indicative of wheelspin, or some kind of slip (which would be why the power has done what it has)

3. Roller speed was used. WHY WHY WHY. Why not measure RPM properly, if you're so interested in following DD guidelines to the letter, GET THE FUCKING RPM ADAPTOR OUT THAT YOU BOUGHT AND CLIP IT ONTO AN HT LEAD!!! It's not rocket science. Then you could PROVE that the car gripped, by posting RPM vs Road Speed.



Why don't you guys humour me, on the next big power Cossie, run it your way, then run it my way. See how they compare. I'm only saying it because we had all the ideas about following the manual when we first got our DD, but experience has taught us better.

Take it or leave it, that graph is wank and I'm SURE the car isn't that bad. I feel sorry for you ASHCOSSIE, you got a very inaccurate result there.
Sorry mate a diesel does not put out peak power at 4600 rpm my st tdci puts out peek power at 3000 rpm and peek Torque comes in at 2200 rpm so on that point alone your way off the mark

And my car went on the same rolling road and put out just what it should have so maybe you should just eat humble pie and except the figures

No one likes a hater
