Heya! Bought a 1.6 sport ep2 2004 last night! Is it bad for the car to rev it right out till she hits the limiter for about 1 or 2secs n then change gear? I don't do it all the time only the odd time! Thanks guys chris!

 

I'm going to say.. yes.

 

Driving up to the redline is not good for any car. The optimal time to shift is before that anyway, as the horsepower output of the engine decreases at very high rpm.

 

Thanks mk never knew that but I jst lik to rev it out cause it sounds klass I drive my m8s ep3 n do it in that all the time! So I must stop!

 

Yea redlining a car is not good for it.
