Engine Fail Warning

I have being getting "engine reaching it's rpm limit" warning come up, but all is Ok when in manual test mode.
the week part only shows up in the manual mode, if I increase the rev limit by at least 2000 RPM.

Re: Engine Fail Warning

Yeah, the manual testing thing is a bit dodgy sometimes, doesn't always show a problem early enough. A fix is coming for that :)

Sure, but its not the point, even if your oil pressure gauge dance, you still don't know what part is overstressed.
