i was driving around and i decided to go through the gears. so i went form 3rd to 4rth then when i was going to 5th i didnt notice, i was kinda tired, but it went to
3rd and i let the clutch out and it jumped to around 9 then i pushed the clutch and let the car coast till 60 and i just cruised on home worried that i screwed somthing up. has anyone elso done this cause i havent driven the car yet and im worried i broke somthing because that did not feel good.

 

if nothing happened, then it should be fine.

lots of people have done this before... so if nothing seems different then i'm sure it's fine.

 

Dittto

 

your fine

 

i just drove it to get gas by my house and it seemed fine, but i still havent gotten on it that much, the station wasnt that far.

 

when i'm on the highway going 50mph and want to speed up, i go from 5th to 3rd. the car go's to about 5.5-6rpm, kicks you back in the seat and your off. the car needs to get loose from time to time.

so your fine

 

i was driving my 1st xr4ti with a super big gulp in my left hand (no cup holders b/c my car is race ....and from the 80's lol) Trying to up shift i did the same thing. It may have had something to do with the added weight of my gulp as i often times fill 1/2 of it up with slurpee...don't tell 7-11

 

he said 9000rpm...not good shock factor for motor or tranny.

 

lol...retarded

 

yea the rpms just shot up there. i was going about 100 and then put it in 3rd.

 

happened to me too but the evo is fine. You should be fine.

 

something of that nature happen to me, when i first got my 8, and to this day its still driving very well, dont let it happen again.

 

Over revving like that can cause you to float and bend a valve, but you'd notice if that happened. In all likelyhood the car is fine.

 

ive done the same thing but i was going from 2nd to 3rd but went into 1st without forcing it. idk how the hell it went into 1st tho

 

If something was wrong you would have noticed it immediately like a "bang" "boom" "snap" ya know the scary noises!!
