"Ideal family car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

It revs to high when changing gears.

Speedometer moves to 5 mph when car is stationary.

A whistling sound coming from the engine when accelerating.

General comments?

The car its self I am very pleased with.

It has plenty of humph and is very nippy.

I know I have not had the car that long, but these annoying problems do get to you.

It has been into the Vauxhall garage where I purchased it from, but they could not find anything wrong with it.

It is due to go back in for 2 days to have an extensive road check.

Performance wise it knocks spots off my previous car which was a 2.0 DI Vectra.

I just hope that the garage can work out what is wrong with it so that I can enjoy good motoring.

Hi,

I have a Peugeot 405 Turbo Diesel, and I had a whistling noise, which was a small hole in the front section of the exhaust, this lets out the sound of the turbo. Could be worth checking.
