2017 gs 350 awd in reveres is slow. Rpm will not go over 2800 rpm? Normal? My 2013 was an animal in reverse? Any suggestions

 

I can't verify going that fast in reverse, but questioning why you would want to except to avoid a bad situation or drive like the Dukes of Hazzard in a GS?

 

Car is sluggish in reverse , toyota tech drove the car and even he says is weird. 2800 rpm . why 2013 did not have this issue? i dont want to go crazy in reverse but it should accelerate with power like previous car 2013 with same trans

 

I don't honestly think I've ever tried to hit 2800 or more RPM while in reverse. Challenge accepted.

 

i can go 40 miles per hour in reverse no problem!1 Can You? need skills bro

 

I have a 2016 that is also limited while in reverse. My wife likes that feature.🙄

 

 

Update on slow in reverse GS 350I figured out it’s a safety feature if you want to go for Speeding Reverse when you’re being carjacked you’re you have to turn off the traction Control just hold the button for three seconds and here you go car goes like a dream in reverse

 

Me (to car jacker): Just hang on a sec... [disables traction control, shifts into reverse, and speeds away]

Somehow I think this will not deliver the results I desire.

 

No, u call ur insurance company to get a check and take Uber to the dealer and buy a new car.

 

The funny part is I am a dealer. I figure it out you have to turn off traction control and the car goes as it supposed to go this was tricky I have a shop foreman and master technician drive in my car they could not figure out finally I disable traction and it works now it’s a safety feature which is probably good for most people I have no reason to disable this unless they offer me a job as an actor at fast and furious 17

 

Yeah, the Brian O'Connor Driving School.

 

Drag strips should start hosting special race nights in reverse. Civics become "RWD", V8 muscle becomes "FWD".

 

Shift to "R" for Race Mode!
