Sounds about right, what rpm and what Diff you using? 3:07?

My 80 240D 4-spd manual, anything below 40mph, and the engine is starting to lug down, so then run it in 3rd gear.
Iam using a 3:58 Diff instead of the 3:69 all 240`s use. so maybe a 3:69 anything below 35 or so, shift to 3rd.

Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.
