here's the deal, 89 b2, 2.9, a4ld, stock gears with 31" M/T's.
accelerating from 0 to 50-55mph is great, get on the highway, hit 55, and thats about it. i can get it to 65 after about 15 seconds in 4th gear, if i take it out of overdrive into drive, pretty much putting it in 3rd gear, it will accelerate a bit better, but im still not going hardly at all. i can floor it and it wont rev past 3k rpms. below 55mph i can run it right up to the redline through 1st and 2nd.
i dont know if its a clogged transmission filter, bad 4th gear, or what.
never had this problem before, but its done it since i bought it.
