| Description of the problem | While the engine was on and the car in drive, but stopped with my foot on the brake, the engine unexpectedly revved up to about 6000 rpm. The first time was about 2 months ago, in a parking lot. I thought perhaps i had inadvertently pressed the accelerator while my foot was on the brake. Two days ago it happened again. This time i had driven about half a mile, stopped the car for a couple of minutes, and when i started again the engine raced once it was put in gear. I had to turn it off and then on 3 times for it to come back to normal. Yesterday i drove about one mile to a traffic light, and while i was stopped waiting for the light to change the car started to rev high and move into the intersection until i moved it out of drive. I had to shut off and restart for it to return to normal. About 15 or 20 more miles of driving and a half dozen stops, it happened again while i was leaving a parking space. When i got home i connected my code reader, there were no codes. It is now at my mechanic, but the problem has not happened for them yet. |
