rpm hang... is this happeing on autos and manuals... or are you the only one to experience this

 

i have an auto and this happened to me too

 

i never had this rpm hang you guys are talking about and i drive a stupid automatic

 

it says 2004 recall

 

well out of the 3 i know of, my auto, my friends auto, and our friends manual, they all hang...
my idle is either ~500 or ~1000... and the car in upper rpm range likes to stick around for a few seconds before dropping (after gas is disengaged)... fun for when driving around turns on empty roads to have the power right there, but sux for while driving in traffic.

 

now.....can we go to any mitsu stealership and just have it done??? or do i have to go back to the same one i bought my lancer from????? just curious

 

any dealer u want to

 

Yea im gonna go check my car out for the recall about the Cat Conv Warmup(finally got letter in mail and dad wants me to go). Neway this is just random ?. #1 do u still need warrnty to get the recall job done free. #2. Can putting in new spark plug wires (the magnacore 1s) void warrant. and thats it.

Tnks u

 

recall doesn't mean warrenty... recall is to save mitsu's ***... have you herd of 5 year old cars/trucks being recalled... its so that the owner doesn't get hurt and so that the manufacturer doesn't lose any more lawsuits..

 

Could we maybe get a video of this so when it possibly happens to one of us we know what you are talking about?

 

oh you'll know, ok this isnt hard. you press on the gas, the rpms are rising, you let off the gas to coast, and for about a second or 2 after letting off the gas the rpms continue to rise as if you were still on the gas. trust me, its not hard to tell that its happening, makes you go "what the f---?"

 

^That's f* up!!! talk about safety issue!

 

well its not really dangerous cause if your slowing down, just hit the brakes and its not a problem, just if you go to coast, it takes a second.

 

Got ya now, but wouldn't that cause a problem with auto's?

 

it only did it with mine a couple of times and hasnt done it since, im still gonna get it checked out.
