[@anamariaduta6620]

It's still not fixed? Because a little under 10 sec for 170hp is to much for 0-100 🤔

[@SlowFord]

Low torque, heavy car, old automatic transmission. 🙂

[@ThenameisOskar]

My 200hp 450nm car does 0-100km/h on GPS in 8.8 seconds. Alot of wheelspin + heavy car + manual gearbox.

[@SlowFord]

@@ThenameisOskar yours is slow 0-100kmh only due to having no traction. You can try it with better tires

[@ThenameisOskar]

@@SlowFord Correct. My tyres are also quite small, 215/55-R17. I have put new tyres on the wheels but with the current weather conditions it wont make a big difference. I have done a rolling ''race'' with a Bmw 530e. I was as quick as him from 30 to 120km/h. Without traction loss I would probably do 0-100km/h (GPS) in 7.5 ish seconds. Anyway, 0-100km/h isnt so relevant. 50-120, 50-150, 100-200 etc is more important in my opinion.

@@ThenameisOskar i have also " 0-100" issue with 150hp skoda octavia 1.5 tsi 3fl manual g-box... factory data is 8.3 sec, but with 205/55 r16 michelin energy and "eco" throttle resposne is hard to get under 9 sec till 100. but in acceleration 100-160 is quite fast about 11.5 sec.

[@passion-pilotagedriver1770]

The gearbox kill the fabulous m52 motor! Stock manual gearbox in 23-25s 100-200. My 323i customized 206hp at 18s 100-200. Excellent engine💪

[@trbossdoggy]

I have 323CI manual. The car seems so slow to me, although nothing seems wrong (no engine errors, no leaks nothing) what could be the issue?

[@passion-pilotagedriver1770]

@@trbossdoggy hello, in french please🙂

[@trbossdoggy]

J'ai le manuel 323CI. La voiture me semble si lente, même si rien ne semble anormale (pas d'erreur moteur, pas de fuite, rien), quel pourrait être le problème ?

[@passion-pilotagedriver1770]

Si seuleument je pouvais vous donner la réponse..

[@mg4263]

Uh da bin ich froh nen 323ci als Handschalter zu besitzen... 0-100 Km/h in 8.0 sek und Vmax 237 Km/h ( Tacho 245 )

[@juliusohly8817]

Wenn du Vmax öffnest und anderes diff machst geht der mehr und ansaugbrücke und Optimierung dazu

[@deadalive7311]

OMG 😄 My 523i E39 manual make 7.5s on tacho. Real i think is 8.0-8.3s to 100s This gearbox killing the performance

[@SlowFord]

You are right, the gearbox is very slow

[@tsiridisgeorgios8543]

Super 👍

[@SlowFord]

Dankeschön 👍

[@deadalive7311]

Something is really wrong with this car. This acceleration is like 320i 2.0 150HP not 2.5 170HP.

[@emiliamariuta9911]

Salut! Super fain

[@SlowFord]

Multam 🙂

[@lijafox86]

it's quite short gear ratios for 2.5/170 engine..

[@SlowFord]

They are not short. 1st gear 60kmh, 2nd 110kmh..

[@lijafox86]

@@SlowFord my bad, i want to say that last gear (4) is quite short calculated. on 3000 rpm going 100 wich is similiar for 1.6 N/A engines...

[@SlowFord]

@Ilija Savoric 4th gear is not short, it went to+ 220kmh in 4th gear. My focus rs goes to 190kmh in 4th gear. 😅 I know that I was watching when editing and noticed that the gears are pretty long. I mean, I saw cars with way shorter gears 🙂 BTW it has a 5 speed transmission. But I don't know why it didn't changed to 5th

[@lijafox86]

@@SlowFord i thought it only had 4 speed ... in that case - everything is fine 😄

Does it go faster when you manuelly shifts ?

[@SlowFord]

No 😂

[@cristianguzman3706]

Yes

[@ThenameisOskar]

Not sure which car that was, it does look like a GTI as you mentioned. Next time you see him tell him to get rid of that GTI and buy an Up instead. 😂

[@SlowFord]

Well, it had a front GTI bumper and he started flashing me to move over as I was waiting for the car in front of me to clear the lane.

[@ThenameisOskar]

@@SlowFord He drives like a slowpoke. Even in a VW Up I would be quicker than him. 😂

[@SlowFord]

@@ThenameisOskar I don't know if he went full throttle but he was taigaiting me before he decided to flash me. Maybe I have interrupted his cruise control 😅

[@ThenameisOskar]

@@SlowFord Doubt it. He was tailgating for a bit too long for that, that doesnt look like a interruption of the cruise control. Also even if he was driving on the cc, he could of seen you driving on the left lane, since you were on the left lane behind the red car for quite a while. I dont know why but some people are really weird. A while ago some guy in front of me (in a VW Polo) was tailgating everyone in front of him, hitting his brakes every 10 seconds so he wouldnt crash into them. Him behaving like that irritated me so I decided to overtake them (on a B-road outside the city 80km/h speed limit). The person behind me who was getting tailgated took a turn and then this person started getting closer to me and then started to tailgate me... I would brake once in a while on purpose to tell him keep a distance. He would brake and then come back tailgate again. So I braked once quite hard for no reason and then started driving 30 in the city where its 50, he would brake hard and then come back tailgate. I have never experienced such a weird situation before. It was like he couldnt see depth, which made him not being able to see how close he was to the car in front of him.

[@SlowFord]

@@ThenameisOskar you should have turned the fog light on. That would have cought his attention 🙂

Da, este foarte lenta cutia. Dar motorul are un sunet formidabil. Imi aminteste de e60-ul 525i (3.0l) ce l-am filmat acum cateva luni. Avea un sunet demential cand ajungea la 6500rpm.😍🤤

Add some song in the background it would be awesome.

[@SlowFord]

I usualy add a song only when doing the walk around and that only if it's wind noise.

[@Vxibhav.99]

@@SlowFord just add some good and mashup of songs in low volume it will create a good viewing experience. I just dont have a car that why else i would also do the same thing.
