Today I let this one girl drive my car even though I am only 18 ( she is an 18 year old , no license jsut a permit) for practice for her test in a couple of weeks cause she hasn't been doing much practice lately. She switches the car into neutral mode accidentally and wot for about 4 seconds. Do you think anything was damaged?

 

you are trying too hard to get in her pants. Quit acting desperate and she will be way more likely to drop her panties. Oh yeah that is bad for your car for sure

 

Nope.

Under load it will do more damage then without load. Remember these motors are built and tested to take punishment before being mass produced. Just think of her incident as a "test" for the motor. lol

 

Shouldn't have, just did she slam it back into drive afterwards while the rpms were high, or did you first stop the car, and then let the rpms go down and then put it back into drive?

It won't necessarily damage the car, just strain on trans. Don't do it often. haha

 

Dude I am not trying to get into her pants... I have a girlfriend already >_>

 

She placed it back into drive when the rpms were at about 5000

 

lol, don't take advice from some of these guys. But some of them actually know what they are talking about.

If it was bad then can someone tell me why they have Supras making 1200whp with 2 stage rev limiters and so on. Not to mention when they do a burnout, they rev the **** out of their motors to make power off the line at the drag strip. Same goes for other street cars that are weekend warriors.

 

Yikes. Might do something to your drivetrain but warranty will most likely cover it.

 

Neutral drop = very bad, regardless of how much the engine was tested. They can't engineer for stupidity.

 

Let me guess, after she finished driving your IS - she only wants to "be friends"?

 

Shes not my girlfriend -.-" ... my girlfriend and her are two different people... shes just an attractive girl that is a friend...

 

i don't think its too bad for the car, but express to her how bad it was and give her a good WOT!!! Women on top....

 

Attractive girl.... ne pics? haha

 

yeah right we believe you
comon stop lying to us

 

I also let my friends practice in my car. And no im not going for any pants diving lol, but the next time you let her drive, put it into snow mode. I think slower engine response when touching the throttle would be better if youre worried that she may accidently give it the beans. Or accidently shift into N again.
