dont spam guys

Question. When the revs JUMP - its the REV counter only correct ? not the actual REVS ?

It might be a ground issue or dizzy issue - loose wire somewhere

when the revs jump benji the engine goes spastic

the engine correspond to the revs.

oh wow. sounds a mix of sensor overload. car drives 100% fine and shifts fine below this speed correct...

either your leaving some nice black lines on the road or ur g/box still has problems.

take it right back to them & tell em to fix it properly this time.

depends how bad the revs jump back an forward coz once it shifts in 2 4th over 80-100k the revs drop when ur on freeway or just cruising mine does the same sometimes mine drops from around 4000 to 2500-3000 depends on acceleration and could be that ur gearbox is slipping or needs a good service!

its just annoying, dunno why the hell it does it sometimes hey pola

like, it doesnt feel like the auto is slipping

drives perfect until 100k's

past 100 feels like the car is on XTC or something lol

is it actually dropping down a gear when it revs up?

I've seen on some older cars when the gbox is on its way out it has a tendency to mischange gears. Some change too often and some don't change.

Sometimes a transmission oil change fixes the problem
