Took the car out for a spin this evening, On the way home, I thought I would have a little fun. So I nailed it hard, and all of a sudden my boost gauge shut off and a message stating MPH speed limit exceeded. WTF where the hell did that come from??????????????


I have never seen that before has anyone else???

It can be set to any speed and turned on/off in the on-board computer menus. Look for the "LIMIT" menu... It's surprised me a few times when I didn't realize how fast I was going (mine is set at 100mph).

Its a new way for PAG and PCNA to keep an eye on you. When you get that message displayed PCNA cancels your warranty.

Just check the OBC like Scott says. It is surprising how fast the speed can get away from you.

You need to take off those led shoes of yours.

Orlando,

So what was it set to? Inquiring minds want to know what your definition of "a little fun" is....

75MPH, I am still trying to figure out how I set that. As far as a little fun goes, it was set at 75mph.
