Over rev - 7/13/2007 4:06:16 AM    Blue Sky   Posts: 6 Score: 0 Joined: 7/9/2007 Status: offline Well, I hope the car is ok - I'm sure it is as the car seems fine.  But, thank goodness for a rev limiter. While at a light, I nailed the accelerator in first gear of my sportronic auto trans, not realizing I was in manual mode.  So the car goes like a shot, then it tops out - duh - the rev limiter kicked in and it sat there for about 1-2 seconds before I realized what happened, then I put the car back in drive. Car seems fine - but being a worry wort - let me know what you think. Thanks. Blue < Message edited by Blue Sky -- 7/13/2007 4:43:34 AM > Post #: 1
