What The F*****!

[MissR34]

hey all

i hope someone ca help me solve this mystery.

the other night i decided to see how my car would go at really high speeds (now im talkin i got up to 170k) the car did well, held it togther nicely, but............i threw it into neutral to put less strain on the engine as i slowed down.........then she stalled. f*** knows why!??

Im thinking maybe it was cause she was at such high rpm????????? please help! this is so weird! cause the the highest i can go is 180 km so i dont understand why!!!!

[Reggi34dr]

Cara, is your car manual or tiptronic? and how fast were you going (roughly) when you threw it in to neutral?

[MissR34]

Hey its a manual and i was doing prob 160 k when i threw it into neutral

[eMsta]

shouldnt stall when you throw it in to neutral - revs should be at around 750rpm - 1000 rpm.....

In before the lockdown

a car going from almost full load to nothing in less than a few seconds - it doesn't surprise me.

stalling the car means no steering and no braking. glad you didn't hit someone...

try it on the track next time. i dont need to remind you, that you're an idiot.

[Reggi34dr]

well Eug beat me to it Cara, your crazy

you do know that any talk of illegal road activity is a no-no on these forums?

i'm sure the Mods will be along sometime today to give your thread the once over.

[MissR34]

yeah but i think it was sitting at like 5500-6000rpm just before the put it in neutral. it is quite weird.

my brakes worked fine.....and i still had full control of the car

[Eug]

you know full well that i'm not out on a personal vendetta or anything.

but i'm sorry to say no that you do not have full control of the car.

with the car stalled you have no power steering, and braking is very limited.

that aside, being in full control of the car still doesn't justify it.

i'm thinking oil pressure could be your problem? not sure, i don't know anyone else who would try/think to do something like that.

[eMsta]

would this happen on the freeway - @100km/h and you put it in neutral???

[BAMR33]

The revs and the air flow into the motor drop far to fast for the ECU to keep up and causes it to stall, I'm guessing you probably have a vent to atmosphere BOV which doesn't help the situation either. Best idea just put it in fifth gear and brake.

[MyR3408]

is it possible to happen on a tiptronic trans?

[thorpe84]

try reverse next time

fucKEN BAAAANNGGGGGG!@!@@

Glad to hear that you lived to write the topic. Please keep it to the track where its a controlled environment. Cars can be repaired or replaced lives can not.

By the way your 34 is coming along nicely.

[lingeringsoul]

Holy!!! that is dangerous....seriously, I had my car cut out before doing 40k right before a corner and with the car stalled, it is close to IMPOSSIBLE to press down on the brakes or turn the wheels. Count yourself lucky there were no cars in front or a bend because if there were, you wouldn't be here to talk about it.

[R-SPEC]

i thought stalling a manual at high rpm's/speed while putting it in neutral was normal as its happened a few times to mates' cars....

ps. you fkn hoon!!

[SKiT_R31]

um... if you leave it in gear, yuo will still have steering as the motors still turning over, and afaik you still have vacuum? meaning brakes.... not that its too hard to stop without power assistance anyway

[MissR34]

ill let you all know i was by myself and there was NO ONE around me at all. no one, zilch.
