or doesn't in my case. I think I've read on here other people have the gong sounds on start-up or at other times as a warning. I don't get that at all. Anyone know what I should be looking for when I try troubleshooting?

Hiya Hawk911
Ya only get gonged if you have a problem .
If you never have a problem that the car thinks needs a gong , it will not gong you .

It kinda sounds like you are troubleshooting the lack of a problem .
If you wish to hear the gong by makeing a problem , I'm sure that we can come up with a way to
mess up your car .

Aside from the handling, which I'm sure is better, I am interested in your thoughts as to its' long range comfort(400-800 miles). I've the M030 on my RSA and it's proven itself capable on many 800-900 mile days, but I'd like to sharpen the handling without compromising the long range comfort. I know you haven't had the time to answer to my specific needs, but as the miles accumulate your subjective thoughts on relative comfort will be most appreciated.

Best,
Noah

Noah, my poor man, you'll have to wait for spring for that report. It's winter here, with our first dose of snow today. I'll be lucky to get 100 miles on it before April 06.

How perceptive! Okay, I'll practice a little patience, make a few calls, and, hopefully, join in the fun. But I'm holding you personally accountable.

Yes, and I've noted a few others here, also. Hopefully, he or someone else will give their impressions on the long distance capability of this setup. Thanks.

Noah, do you mean long distance is in a single days driving, or just long-term perspective of the setup?
