Misdownshifted from 3rd to 2nd and over the redline
So I just now was going to upshift to 4th, but I misdownshifted to the 2nd at 93-98km/h. The revved just passed the redline like about 7700, 7800rpm...:(
That that gonna cause a huge damage for the engine and the clutch? |
If I rev mine out to the limiter in 2nd I am at 98km/hr indicated. If you truly were doing 93 - 98 when you inadvertently went into second, I don't see how you over revved?

It's totaled. Time to buy another car. I suggest a new Honda Civic in auto.
If you keep driving it, the clutch is going to brake and go through floor board and cut off your manly bits. Lucky for you I'll gladly take that death trap of a car. I'll even give you $300 for your troubles. |

nah no damage. If you misshift from 5th to 2nd, now that might be a problem

No need to worry. Keep enjoying your car.

That's called a money shift. Usually after you do that, you end up spending a lot of money to fix it. If it's driving fine, no problems and nothing happened after- you got lucky. Don't do it again :slap:

Did you try to press the clutch as soon as you heard it start to over rev?
