Evening all
My morning commute consists of approx 1m gentle downhill trundle before joining a fast moving nsl a road. There is no slip road so I basically have to hammer it to get up to a safe speed quickly.
Often wonder whether it does the car any harm? (Dico 4 and 335d x)
Don't suppose there is much I can do about it either way but interested to know!
Cheers

Doesn't feel great does it? Suspect my wife doesn't give it a second thought as she boots it,
