    3:08 diff is the standard ratio.

    but whats actually wrong?
    when you go uphill does it just loose all power?
    or does it just feel sluggish and you can still drive?

    Automatic or manual? If auto then it sounds like you may have a transmission problem - does it change gears properly in normal driving, and does it change down a gear when you go up steep hills?
