Problem...

**Aeromus** · 07-27-2006, 11:57 PM

I have a 2001 Celica GT-S, and just recently I've started having problems. Throughout the gears 1-6.. exactly at 6,000 rpms the gauge pauses for a second.. and the car jerks.. and I don't have the power I use to when it continues to climb. I asked a dealership about it.. they said it sounded like a coil pack (but the car only has 41,000 miles). I just picked up the car without talking to the guy who drove it. I guess he said he said it seemed fine, something about a rev limiter kicking in. (I'm guessing he didnt get it to 6,000 fast enough). It's annoying because everyone I try to talk to about it wonders why I'm going over 6,000 rpms to begin with... Does it sound like coil packs? Should I take this back and take the guy for a drive? Any suggestions would be appriecated!

i dun think celica's had rev limiters.

Okay, let me take a whack at this problem... Does your celica just stay at 6000? or it continues to 8000 and up... If it does go to 8000 and up check your lift bolts (X2) if that is the case ... i can help guide u

We've got rev limiters. My '03 GTS is limited to ~8400RPM

sorry..i meant that we don't have a rev limiter at 6000rpm (lift hits at 6200rpm).
