Re: reving

Do you have a impala? If yes does yours sound like this heres it in neutral before it was in park
http://media.putfile.com/neutral

doesnt sound right to me, sounds like a clog... i think my cat is bad because he hesitates and poor gas goes in tomarrow to get the cat looked at, would that cat cause this sound that it doesnt sound like a clear throttle?

Damn right i have an Impala. A beautiful 2001 white 9C1, and hearing your car rev like that must be terrible for you.

I can't really help you to diagnose this problem, im not too knowledable with these things. All i can suggest is getting your car into your friendly neighbourhood mechnic cause damn, that car sounds like its hurtin.

Re: reving

it sounded to me like you were hitting the rev limiter...try driving like 10 mph and then putting it in Neutral and see if it still does that.
