No was not a terraclean as far as i am aware, and yes it does feel quick again! amazing how you get used to the performance of it, im now looking at possibly doing a couple of bits to it like the tailgate conversion and getting the wheels repaired as they have a kurb mark or three on them! I do love the car but cant help feeling it sitting on my drive most of the time is not doing it any good! |

Did I read somewhere that these cars remember your driving style and that if you drive sedately it assumes you'll always drive sedately? And that disconnecting the battery for a while clears the memory and it'll drive more sportily until it learns a new driving style?

No,, I believe your correct Bill,, the Gearbox remembers your driving style and can be reset but I think it requires the use of a plug in tool like the lld or similar rather than just disconnecting the battery. 2010 RRS, TDV8

Never had any of these inlet cleaning services done as I had heard they don't do much and the vehicle soon ends up back the same as it was as it's not doing anything about the problem that caused the carbon build up which is due to the oil system in the engine.
