| -2- I thought the amount of slack and "chanking" in the transmission was rather disappointing. The gear box is very noisy, on indirect gears and side shaft it is very much below the standard we have been getting for some years. The brakes are not good enough. There is a quite noticeable piston knock which I understand has recently developed. | ||
