Bleeping noise
 

Hi

When accelerating in a scoob a bleeping noise is made to say you need to change gears what is this thing called ? :wonder:

Thanks Tom

Basically it's a reminder to shift gears when you hit the rev limit - my Sti 02 had a small red light that blinked at that time, fitted in the rev counter - the limit is adjustable too, well it was on my old car..............I think they're known as shift lights/warnings ??

shift light

shift light alarm/light

On Newage+ this can be adjusted on the dash.

how do you adjust shift light ?? on o2 gdb / sti any one know ?

Do you not have the hand book mate :wonder:
Its all in there if you do.

Nah, don't have handbook and have tried looking up solutions but didn't get anywhere?

If nobody can help, I can get my hand book and post some details but It will be for a hawkeye and I'm not sure if it will be the same :confused:

On my Newage WRX you start the engine, then turn the left stalk which protrudes from the cluster. The LCD display then shows a number which relates to the RPM at which the light will come on. You can also turn the 'beep' on or off too. Once you are happy just wait a couple of seconds and the settings are stored. Drive away and have fun ! Hope that helps mate, but if not let me know and I will give you some more details. :-)

I could give it a name .... but won't :lol1:

Quite why some people need a likkle light or likkle bleep to tell them when to change gear is staggering - ;)

Why do you need it i know when to change gear :brickwall

Try a twisty circuit, with traffic, and 400+ bhp, it can all get a bit exciting sometimes.....

LOL

dunx

P.S. TBH I change up a 6500 rpm on track as it's torque that counts.

I suppose that I come from a time when men could drive extremely well - not needing traction control, anti-lock brakes, and - worse - something to tell you when to change gear :lol:

A time when men were men and women were glad of it .... today's kiddies show why women are much more agressive - no real men about who know when to change gear ;)
