Ganador Member 5 Member For: 12y 2m 13d Posted 27/02/12 11:34 AM Share Posted 27/02/12 11:34 AM Hey guys, First post.My BF MKll manual has started to have a 5700 limiter in every gear. Its lightly modified with custom tunes but the limiter used to be about 6400 or there abouts.Wondering if yous would know what would be causing this?Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothings changed since then. It's only just recently been doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there aren't any, try reflashing your pcm with the same tune. then see if the limit is still there.

Ganador Member 5 Member For: 12y 2m 13d Posted 27/02/12 11:59 PM Author Share Posted 27/02/12 11:59 PM Did all that on Sunday. Is there a clutch switch (possibly broken) that limits the rev when pressed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brods Member 433 Member For: 13y 9m 11d Gender: Male Posted 28/02/12 01:14 AM Share Posted 28/02/12 01:14 AM I wouldn't be revving past 5.5 if I hadn't done oil pump gears IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1600dave Donating Members 872 Member For: 13y 4m Posted 28/02/12 04:06 AM Share Posted 28/02/12 04:06 AM Lowering the rev limit won't help oil pump gears much, just make it easier to hit limiter which is what they don't like.When does the car make peak power? Do you need all 6400rpm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
