Got 3 questions:
1- Is lugging an engine the main cause of wear and tear on the DMF? (Lower the RPMs = higher the vibrations to absorb?)
2- Does cruising on a flat surface at ~40 mph, count as lugging if the RPMs are under 1400-1500? Or is it only when overtaking / going uphills? (power is needed)
3- Is 1000 RPMs at 30 mph the stock tune? Isn't this terrible? Was this done for economy? (2009 CBEA)
