I've got a 2002 Passat GLX 4MO.
It's Indigo Blue/Beige.. Wonderful car. Anyway, when I get on the freeway and throw it into passing gear (i.e. flooring it), the revs sometimes go into the 6500rpm range and almost into the red. As soon as I notice this, I usually back off a little to drop the RPMs. What I'm wondering is, Is this normal? Do I have anything to worry about?
Second question, about a week after I got the car
some sob apparantly bushed along my rear passenger door and now there's a small scratch-brush mark. I've tried Mother's scratch remover and while this has worked a little, it's not completely removed the brush marks to my satisfaction. Any suggestions?
Last, are the stock speakers (monsoon) decent? I mean, I enjoy listening to music and sometimes at a loud volume. I'm beginning to notice a small distortion in my drivers-right speaker and am trying to determine if this is beginning to blow, or if it's just the music I'm listening to has distortion on it.
Thanks.
Stuart.
