How nice of you, it's always summer, always ready for another ride; here there are only 9* C  Cry

Over to people who know what they're talking about.

No way, I don't hear that pronounced knocking at all on yours; only the idle seems a bit high to me, doesn't it(on yours)?
Yes is quite pronounced, that's why I'm worried. Sad
