Does the engine noise seem to match only 3200 rpm?
Well....sort of, but not exactly. SOME automatic transmissions can be destroyed under certain conditions by revving in Park or neutral. I remember there was a BMW service bulletin for this relating to the ZF transmission in the 80's and 90's. People in California were destroying transmissions during smog checks when they sustained higher than idle rpm for a sustained period of time.Isn't it urban legend that excessively revving an engine with no load on it is bad juju? Maybe whoever programmed the limiter at Fiat believes so?![]()
I can confirm there isn't.Had the blue temp light on the dash gone out? ...there may be a rev limit when the engine is cold.
Yes, briefly drove in excess of 4,000 rpm (just to be sure) with blue light on.You are confirming that there is NOT a rev limiter?
Mini: Can yours do that Before the Blue temp indicator goes out?Mine is 2017 and revs to redline on P/Neutral. Auto.
