    I have a 2010 gts CVT


    i was driving a few moments ago in a highway and was driving @ 120 km but then i pushed the gas HARD and i saw it went to 160 KM but on the other side it says 6000 RPM and rising so i took out my foot from the pedal and the rpm when down pushed it again to maintanin speed but then again it was going to 6000rpm someone told me that this is really bad but im not sure

    Go to your local dealer and have them check for error codes. I know a while back some members had this problem but had their ecu's reprogrammed and it fixed it

    What the hell are you doin 100 mph for?! And that shouldnt be right at all. the km to rpms that is. What is your max speed on the speedometer and are you auto, cvt, or standard???

    heres the video sorry for the low quality i t was filmed with a cellphone, as u can see the rpm is going up normal then i push the gas hard and it goes to 6 k witha speen around 120 140 --- if i let it go to 160 it goes almost to 7 k
