Pickup \Acceleration issues

Stu, I am talking about the travel.
Adam, if you are past your running-in period you can rev it without problems.

the travel is uninteresting it is the free play you need to controll

I have just read this !!!
Renault CLIO


The clutch cable is adjusted automatically at the pedals by a cam. Every time you operate the pedal it takes in the slack. If it isn't working your clutch plates may be too worn, or the cam is broken.

Good stuff!

Rajesh Bro...I ll touch 10,000ks by this weekend so thats fine, The sound of discomfort and the fuel efficieny drop worries me.........

Adam, as per the company website:

Max. Torque (nm/rpm) 110/3000
Max. Power (hp/rpm) 75 / 5500

So you have to take it to those RPMs to achieve the maximum result. Yes, in the process the noise will be high and you will experience a drop in mileage. But thats unavoidable. May be you could do it over a period of time to get used to the noise levels?

Try and get it to 3000rpm atleast to start off with and then later try increasing some more. Don't take it that much when in first gear though.

Hi,

Please find my observation for the max speed per gear shift for Logan 1.6 GLX.

1st- 40 Km/hr
2nd-80 Km/hr
3rd-120 Km/hr
4th- Approx 160 Km/hr

Do correct me if there is a difference in the values.

With Regards,
Kaustuv Goswami.

kaustuv.. have been driving the same car for a year now.. I have found going up to those figures/gear rather a strain.. i use the following

1st: 0-10 - 2000 rpm
2nd 10-30 - 2500 rpm
3rd 30-60 - 3000 rpm
4th 60 - 85 - 3000 rpm
5th 85-120/130 - 3500 rpm

all RPMs mentioned above are the upper limits i take my car to for any given gear... between 100-120kmph the engine sound is loud but the car remains very stable... higher RPMs do affect the efficiency of the engine in terms of both pick up as well as fuel consumption..

And I know who,s car will last the longest!! Its Logan_loverinDelhi



kaustuv123 Is this just an observation or do you treat your engine this way all the time ?

Be nive to your car and you will have it for years 300000kms are possible with the right treatment .

@kaustav: does your car actually go all that in the gears you mentioned without backfiring...

1st gear - 0-5 kmph (in fact in 1st gear i never press the accelarator pedal and simply lift the clutch, unless the car has to climb upwards from standstill)
2nd gear - upto 15 kmph
3rd gear - upto 40 kmph
4th gear - between 20 to 90 kmph
above that 5th gear

This is the max limits which I have observed for all the gears....I have tried this at the time of taking the test drive.......rarely I have touched the same in my car...

poor test car

Have been moving at 1700 rpm through 1-2-3-4-5 gears and then maintaining 1700rpm at 60kmph ... if i need more speed in 5th gear rpm up to 2500-3000.

Have found this the most economical way to drive, yet not really sacrificing any power

Ok, I ve been doing 2000-2200 on all the gears except for the 1st with following ratio:

1st gear---0-10kms
2nd gear---upto 30kms
3rd gear----upto 40kms
4th gear----upto 60kms
5th gear----its doesnt go above 110...........

I ve been thinking of Buying a new car for myself........... Just a thought at the moment.....

@adam: it wont go above 110 at 2200. u need more revs. as you can hit till 110 at 2200, probably around 3000.

though you must keep a check on rpms, to be on safer side so that you may not incur expenses sooner, enjoy the machine and take it to limits specially in the 4th and 5th gears.

hi.,......... saw an article on performance chip from DTE in autocar magazine .august edition...

hey before posting all pictures.....kindly tell me how to rotate this pictures

Chiptuning !! Good stuff as well and cheap

Pete's in Idia has tuning boxes for the Logan as well. They are plug and play and you can remove them before giving the car for service - so that warranty is not a problem.

Look for Renault at the bottom of the page. He has dealers across India and the product is priced at about Rs 30,000.

AND THEY WORK !!!!

Why don't the manufacturers do what the pete's box does in the first place? Drastic drop in mileage?

Oh! they do work well. Overdrive (or one of the other Indian car magazines) had done a 10,000 Km test/review and the performance increase was quite drastic.

But then - you loose out on FE (which is of prime importance to the masses) and these FE concerns cause manufacturers to detune engines for our market.

Drastic drops indeed, the magazine that tested the Petes box reported a FE below 14 Kmpl with the pete's box installed - mostly because of spirited driving.
