2nd Gear Overrev
I haven't had the car out in since December due to bad weather. Yesterday was a beautiful day, so I thought I'd take the R129 out to the hardware store.
I wound it up pretty high from the red light; shifted from first as it always does...fast and hard (which I like), but when it came to shifting out of second, the car overrevved, hiccupped, then shifted.
I thought it was due to it's sitting for a long while and this was just a 'mistake' on the car.
Well, leaving the hardware store, it did it again, just about a .25 second overrev (loss of power), then it shifts into 3rd.
Has anyone else had this issue too?
Thanks,
