Rev limiter ???

[jivecar]

I was wondering; does a MINI has a rev limiter (rpm begrenzung) ?? Normally I always shift gears at max 5500 rpm, but yesterday the oil was nice on temp and with the digital rev meter on I tried a nice acceleration. I just hit the 7023 rpm @ 2nd gear; there was nothing to stop the rpm meter going in the red...... is there a "begrenzung"???

@jivecar
yes there is a rev limiter (drehzahlbegrenzer). at my mcs it was about 6.900rpm before chipping. after that measure it was lifted to 7.300rpm. how do you know that it was exactly 7.023? i only watch my rev meter with its 250rpm steps during shifting!

have fun - shift your mini

Thanks to the service computer (see software thread), at that moment the boardcomputer was showing the digital "drehzahl" (menu 7.3). And this menu is shown in 4 digits.......
