Just wondering if anybody else noticed Tach bouncing at idle and at highway speed or is this just normal for this tranny??

Thanks

none of that with mine, 750 miles

ItIsWhatItIs · 07-07-2009, 12:04 AM

Didn't notice any bouncing.

Rockets · 07-07-2009, 12:06 AM

Thanks I'll take it in tomorrow as I now got 730kms but very happy with fuel so far in city driving 20 plus now

9c1ny · 07-07-2009, 12:10 AM

it will fluctuate a very minimal amount from time to time at idle <+/- 100rpms> but not when I am driving

Rockets · 07-07-2009, 12:12 AM

mine does both idle and at say 100km just in the tach though no difference in sound from motor

honestly I dont watch the tach while driving, I will keep an eye open for it

Ya let me know if you notice anything and I;ll call the dealer tomorrow but none of my other GM models with tach do this

I have noticed this on mine too while I am driving. Even with cruise control on. (I have a M6 though) Sometimes it looks to bounce as much as about 250 RPM's up or down. I think it might just be because its such a large needle. Let me know what you find out because I have also been getting lower gas mileage so it might be related. Thanks,

Dealer guy says its normal because of Cam but said if it gets worse let me know.

So for now just letting it ride and going on 1200km trip too Vancouver and will see what it all does and hoping too get 30 miles per gallon as i'm still old school and like too convert back too imperial from metric

Because of the cam.........8)
My SS A6 has done it from the begining.

My 512Ci BBC with a big mechanical roller doesnt do it...uuummm.

Rockets · 07-07-2009, 04:29 PM

maybe i will call another dealer and ask them see what they say

Rockets · 07-07-2009, 05:27 PM

Okay called other dealer says its fine its called a lean roll as injectors need too seat cause its new after a few thousand k or miles it should be all okay.

He said V6 would be worse

Slvr1SSA6 · 07-07-2009, 07:25 PM

Cool.
Took mine to town and found it only does it when the AFM (DOD) is engaged
