Wait, what?
[edit]the article is lacking any references. I wont report it myself, because at least its halfway informative, but I'd definitely find some references, lest the article nazi's find it. --Kvuo (talk) 04:48, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Probably wrong image
[edit]The first picture at the "Operation" section contained a 4-speed manual shifter, but many cars have either 5 or 6-speed manual transmissions. Why put that image? 78.180.250.168 (talk) 16:33, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
- Does it matter? It's not terribly relevant in any case. --Wtshymanski (talk) 21:16, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
- Exactly. Why is the image there at all? 74.73.228.182 (talk) 15:32, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
Automatic transmission tachy
[edit]The first section states
In the case of an automatic transmission in "drive" mode, the engine RPM stays safely within the range that the transmission chooses. Only when over revving the engine in "park", "neutral" or "manual" modes is there any need for a rev limiter. These vehicles often do not include a tachometer. Without this gauge, the redline cannot be seen but there is so little risk of excessive engine speed with fully automatic transmissions that engine RPM is not a concern
Has there ever been a car sold that doesnt have a tachometer? I don't think so, and this section doesn't site any sources, so I'm not sure where this info came from. Unpicked6291 (talk) 04:23, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
