Re: 1.6 Dgit Pulsar Fuel Economy

The problem of sluggish pull off isn't restricted to the diesel. I'm driving the 1.2 petrol and am also generally light on the hot pedal and have the same issue.

Re: DRL an Emergency Forward Brake.

I was driving alongside a row of buses today when the warning beep went off. Absolutely nothing in front of me, buses were static, and I was driving straight ahead.
