Hey guys,

I sometimes take turns one gear more than I should be. (i.e. 22 mph at 3rd when should be 2nd).

My tachometer is dropping just under 2K rpms and I so feel slight vibration as if the I am lugging my engine. someone told me that modern engines have controllers that limit lugging...

Is this true?

 

just learn to use the right gear

 

The evo engine will be struggling doing that. Just do it in 2nd.

 

that's a lot of strain on the motor for no reason at all.

 

Don't talk to that person about anything technical again. Also, you're too gullible.

 

it is true, for automatic transmissions!
