Thanks for that. 2940 has gained a Saints sticker on it's rear windscreen.

You'd know if they were in limp mode as they would literally crawl and wont go over 20mph. As for the emissions lights being on, 90% of the time, alls that needs to be done is the AdBlue injectors to be blasted clean.

Ah I see, I just call it limp mode as I was told by an Arriva driver that they all were...any particular reason why they don't get them sorted? Is it just a money thing? I always find myself sat behind screaming Pulsars on 320s/360s on my drive home barely going 15mph. Seems a common thing with St Helens/Birkhenhead Pulsars not being fixed. I feel sorry for the drivers - I've driven my car when it was in a "reduced power state" (over 1 minute to get to 60mph downhill) and it was quite dangerous, never mind driving a bus like that!

Its a system called ecnospeed thats been fitted to reduce the amount of fuel going through the engine to reduce fuel usage and lower emissions which in turn slows the veichles down.
As far as im aware some have been turned off which you can tell which ones they are as they are able to get up hills etc.

There are 5 to be done including 4438. They are 4437/39/41/42.

Maybe someone can confirm but I think 4437 is the next one to be done.

Thanks!

4439 still needs an interior refurb. Think its the only one not to have gained leather seats yet.
