So my dumbass formed a really bad habit of holding the shifter from the side when i shift from 3rd -> 4th, and while it works fine when I'm driving normally, it screwed me up today when I was accelerating at full throttle today.
Shifted from 3rd to 2nd @ about 53 mph. The car jerked and engine braked hard until I slammed the clutch in seconds later. Seems like everything is normal for now. Should I be concerned? I'm worried about long term damages. :facepalm::sad::sad:
If the car still drives, the clutch friction disk did not disintegrate, but a valve could have collided with a piston.
Some times when a valve gets bent. The engine still runs normally... right up until the head of the valve fatigue fails and destroys the engine.
Yeah! Lots of cash and tears... https://www.google.com/images?clien..._group&ei=mlEXVL6MHOG1iwKYj4DIBA&ved=0CBoQsAQ
I did this as well but I went from 5th to 2nd on the highway rpm gauge went to 8k this happen 3-4 weeks ago and today I was draining and refilling my MTF and was inspecting underneath car I saw oil on the sub frame and there was oil slowly dripping from around my oil filter. I believe this has something to do with the over rev. Does anyone know if I messed up the seal on the oil filter? I feel no loss in power and my oil level is fine.
Yea I surprised it's leaking from the filter it's a k&n racing oil filter I thought it would hold up well guess not. Lol I know I thought these cars of have a rev limiter too looks like my tune with hondata didn't help me out on the over rev lol
Same filter that we had an issue with, K&N HP1010. I've been running them on both cars and that was the only issue in the 50k miles for both of our cars (knock on wood).
