    Question c20xe Rev Limit

    hi iv got a c20xe in my corsa and iv never found out what the rev limit is. Anyway its been off the road now for about 6 months and the other day i thought id started it up for a while, after it warmed up I revd it and the rev limit is about 4600??? is that normal i thought it would be much higher than that!
    Theres nothing wrong with it and it drives fine.

    Thanks

    Either the tacho is faulty, set to 6 cylinder or the car's in limp mode!
    Check it against an induction type tacho that clamps on a plug HT lead and go from there.

    all depends on which clocks you have in it.Mine limited at 4500 with the 1L clocks in,but it revs much higher scince i put 14 sport clocks in it.

    Yeah the 140mph are gsi clocks, iv got the 130mph which has electric speedo. I have got sum gsi clocks and cable I'll give them a go see if they give a different reading.
    The only reason I kept the 130mph clocks is because they have White dials
