I feel like iv seen some sort of dashboard redline indicator, but cant seem to find any information on it now. I know it can be done on other cars. Any thoughts? 2019 gti.
Thanks

It would be a light or a signal of some kind that would go off when you hit redline

I had understood that that it wasn't possible to over-rev a mk7 (with DSG) because the mechatronic module (hex02) software won't allow it - even if manual mode is selected, the rev limiter will kick-in. Assuming the car hasn't been tuned
In park or neutral, I don't think the engine can be revved above 4K rpm.
The designed rev-limiter is a software restriction that is imposed by the module, but it is possible to "force" a mechanical over-reving if the driver changes from gear 6-to-gear 2 (say). If this happens, the event is recorded by the ECU and it can be discovered with ODIS

newty it’s a shift light dv52 (Australia) (Australia) on my Tdi it’s 2500 rpm I know on some audis you enable lap timer you get a boost gauge and a shift light (a line of green which moves up then turns to red)

Yes, shift light is what Im looking for! My wording was wrong. Forgot to mention I run a manual. And that is correct Don, 4k in neutral. And here's to never money shifting, knock on wood. I did come across a "rev monitoring" adaptation, but didn't play with it. I wonder what that does. If I get that far I will report, or if you know, please do share.
