Has anyone else noticed this? My 8 seems just a little different every time I drive it. Not that anything is wrong...just different.

My previous cars were always more or less the same every time I drove them.

But my new 8 actually seems to have a personality (or mood) that changes day-to-day!

I'm guessing that could be explained by a lot of things like temperature, humidity, and tires.

 

My 8 has good days and bad days, nothing mechanically wrong bad days, but sometimes it would seem to be angry with me. Especially recently now that its been scarred.. But i'm treating her right, new MS front end for my baby

 

I think the humidity and temp affect my 8 quite a bit. If its quite humid out, say about 50% humidity, it kind of hesitates when changing gears or just stepping on the gas. In milder temps and humidity, this goes away and she drives great.

 

oh, sorry, thought this thread was about my GF . . .

Seriously though; I do notice similar changes based on humidity. If you're high humidity = 50%, you don't know humidity. Swung from ~ 90% hum. down to ~60% in the course of 2 hours here in RI (before & after rainstorm), and I could feel a bit of a difference. Congrats on the ride!

 

def can feel the difference humidity makes. especially now because it's been raining for the past 40 days straight. ARGH!

 

Roger that! I'm so fffu8kin sick of it. My 8's personality is just cranky, no likey the massive amount of water on the roads - mewannagofaster!!!

 

my 8 actually called me an ******* today

 

damn... your 8s need dates

 

Rotaries are a lot like 2 strokes. They like to run lean and on the edge of detonation. Changes in the air, hot/cold and humidity have a much larger affect on how they run.

 

You know when my 8 is having a bad day I just bust out and then hot box her

 

Every 28 days my rx8 gets bloated and cranky.

 

^sucks for you!
