Hey guys and gals,

Does anyone else here have this problem: on wide open accelerations, I hit the rev limiter between the first and second gear shift about half of the time. I will be accelerating hard, and within a second of shifting into second gear, I hit the rev limiter, and the car stands on its nose, then it shifts into second and slams me back into the seat and carries on as if nothing happened.

This is very violent, and is probably causing a lean condition in the cylinders when the rev limiter cuts the fuel, so I definitely want to eliminate this problem. I didn't expect an automatic transmission car to ever let you hit the rev limiter under any conditions, so I'm really suprised this is happening, and I dont see much of any way to avoid it, since I am not doing the shifting myself.

I've taken it to the dealer for this, and "big shock", they claim they can't reproduce the problem. That tells me its probably something really big like rebuilding the transmission or something that they dont WANT to do, so i wanted to check in here and see if anyone else has this problem, or better yet, has had this problem fixed.
