As a side-note you guys might wanna take note of 7359X (147).
This one clearly has a problem, while most B9s roar at the
beginning, this one roars throughout its motion. In fact because my
house faces the road, we were awaken several times because its
roaring is really tortured. The engine clearly is not delivering
power because the bus is extremely sluggish and it takes forever to
switch gears. The gearbox holds the gears as long as possible
because the bus is not accelerating as desired, hence the extremely
loud noise.
Too bad the bus passes my house at midnight everyday, its god-damn
noisy, and I thought the VSO was the loudest!
As a side-note, a perm VO2X on 74 is also having problems with the
engine. MS might be interested in that.
