Redline Problem
 
Hey.. this might be a dumb question but does anybody know why when my car is at WOT, it wont redline.. it goes to 5500 then shifts. Ya, it's an automatic

bcoz its an auto, its factory tuned to avoid any dangers to the engine. unless your car is equipped with overdrive, you cant redline your car,

unless you drifting on snow,
my cadi had an ovedrive, but when i was sliding all over th place, i had it redlining at 2nd till i break the drift

phh man... your car shouldnt even reach 5500 mine dont... its also an auto... i havent past 5000 on mine and ive gone over 240

cars4me89 07-23-2006 05:14 PM

you've gone over 240? do you think that putting it into the sport mode on the auto trans would help it rev higher?

frostburn 07-23-2006 05:15 PM

it does and also i never take pwr off

you can redline it in 1st but it automaticly shifts out of 2nd if you do it manually

cars4me89 07-23-2006 05:26 PM

dont you think that might fry up your trans keeping it in that
