Is it bad to rev while parked?
Answer is….its ok to rev you engine in neutral/park. Just not when its cold and dont hold it on rev limiter! Try not to, because free revving can damage the engine.
Why does my car rev up when in Park?
I’ve seen questions about engines revving when braking and when idling, but my engine revs way up (and stays up) whenever it’s in park–whether on startup or shifting to park. It doesn’t rev unusually like this in any other gear. What would be the most probable reasons?
What happens when you shift from Park to drive?
Am I wrong? please help so I dont waste money or cause damage! If the reving drops back to normal when you shift in neutral, you should do that before shifting in drive since shifting from park to drive while reving up the engine causes high stress on the transmission.
Why is my Saturn not revving up in Park?
It also will idle low and rough when its in park and not revving up as I said before. I have cleaned out the throttle body, cleaned up the IAC as much as possible, it has a new front oxygen sensor (because it went bad) and I even use injector cleaner every few times at the pump to ensure cleanliness since Saturns usually all seem to run rich.
