Can anyone tell me what ratio diffs are available to fit the 201 ?, i have fitted larger tyres to my Euro 2.5d and i now find the car too high geared . What ratio have i got in there at the moment and what is available from other models that would fit?.
Thanks Linds UK

What ratio is marked on the differential case(rr lower corner)? what trans do you have? 4 or 5 speed. Manual or auto?

Hi thanks for replying the car as a 5speed manual transmission, i will try and find the stamped ratio on my casing.
Thanka again Linds

According to the microfische the rear ratio should be 1/3.07. The next lowest ratio would be 1/3.27, the later 190E 2.3 & 2.6 used this ratio.
