i guess this will be a feature on the econetic model?

I was actually going to post a topic about this. I have a Zetec-S and everytime I accelerate in gears 1-4 a green arrow lights up under 3,5000 rpm (diesel)

I thought this was only a feature of the Econetic version? Maybe I got an Econetic dash in my Zetec-S?

I'd rather have a way of DEactivating it to be honest! It's annoying having a green arrow on the dash whenever your foot is touching the pedal (unless in 5th gear)

I can't really see the point as it's always in the same place, they could have just put "change gear at 3,500rpm" in the manual!

I agree can't see the point tbh think we all know when to change gear ???? might be usefull on a learner car maybe

Well it's definitely something to ignore when travelling down Welsh country roads.

Changing up into fifth as you approach another tight bend is not recommended! :lol:

My first posting

The gear change arrow is working on my Fiesta 1.4TDCI registered end of March this year (2010).

I must admit it does make me think about economy and I have adjusted my driving style.

It may not be important to some but for us pensioners.....

I would find it very annoying and distracting too. An experienced driver should know when to change gear, either for economy or performance (yes, I've ducked out and bought an auto but you can still change manually.)
