Cerb post service acceleration

[Joe Cozy]

It's weird... since I got my Cerb back from service it doesn't seem quite as lightning quick as it was. Maybe it's just that I have got more used to the acceleration, but I noticed it as soon as I drove it out of the garage... just missing the 'holy sh!t' level of acceleration.

Is it just me I wonder...???

Senses dulled by the pull & power of the Micra courtesy car?

Sorry Ask them about it is the best advice.

Take it somewhere that understands Cerberas?!

Sadly you do eventually become used to the acceleration. This was part of the reason I got rid of mine.

However if they have set it up poorly then this may be part of the problem.

Nitros perhaps?

Make sure all the ignition leads are pushed firmly onto the spark plugs. I had my cerb come back from a main dealer service with 2 leads not attached to the spark plugs ! Witha v8 it is hard to notice the different noise.

I bet it's not just you, I bet somethings not right.
I have often had problems like this in the past.
The annoying thing is you can often take it to a garage and they'll say they can't fault it, but you KNOW it isn't right. My last 3 Griffs ended up like that and despite countless garage visits were never 'right', so ended up trading them in for a newer TVR.
My Tuscan S seems (is) down on power this last week. It has a service coming up this weekend so I hope it is sorted then.
Will be interesting to hear what is up with yours. Good luck.

Poor running...IMO the worst problem there is.
