960 Gear Ratios

What radio is it? At 70mph, mine is doing 3,100rpm (1995 960 with W/S/E modes)

I may be able to help with the radio code, but the software is at home (I'm in work!). It is likely that you'll have to take covers off the radio and count resistors.

Thanks for that ,, But when you say "Lock Up" you mean its the top gear that trans goes into is only 400RPM drop in revs when it changes? There were some trans that did actualy "Lock Up" in top gear and the Torque Coverter droped out and car became like a manual as far as the drive line went,, I had a MK7 Jag that did that.. Wil check those numbers you gave me and post reply, Cheers Bateye

Yes torque converter locks up so direct drive in top above 50 ish mph.

Thankyou , Ok here are the numbers of the plate,, Hope someone can make sense of them,, Will help me no end to know when looking at cars in future,, ( Im a Norton M/C man and Norton Numbers all in my head) YV1964956N0017307 9649534 16250-4 -9 6870 A17M936 214-21 On a plate on other side NO 267377 This car was made in Sweden, then went to Singapore, then NZ, Cheers Bateye

YV1 = Volvo 964 = 960 4 door saloon 95 = B6304S TWC 3.0l engine with cat conv. 6 = "AW" LOCK-UP gearbox N = 92 model year 0 = factory code 017307 = chassis number

Thats great, thankyou , One question ,, The letter for the year, is that published somewhere, so one can check a cars true year? As for gear ratios,, I will do more acurate testing and see if this car is pulling higher gear that the other one ,, If it is it can only be the final drive diff ratio that is different and all gears will be showing a higher gear, as overall ratio can only be changed with diff,, (and wheel size) OR in my case (God forbid) the speedo and rev counter are out ,, But that not what is indicated so far!! I presume Volvo did have different Diff Ratios available for different models ?? Or were there off the shelf manufacturers that made such things for those diffs, for competition work ? Will post results of tests when done, Cheers Bateye
