how to rev a car automatic

Want to make your automatic clear its throat? First, let the engine warm up, select Park or Neutral, plant your foot on the brake, and give the accelerator a gentle squeeze. Keep the revs well shy of the redline—this is a warm-up, not a concert encore—and never do it in gear unless you like buying transmissions. Avoid “neutral drops” or brake-torque heroics; they cook fluid faster than a Sunday snag on a Bunnings hotplate. If you want a bit of sound on the move, use manual mode or paddles, downshift a gear, and keep it legal and smooth. After you’ve had your fun, let it idle a moment so temps settle, then carry on like a responsible adult (or your best impression of one).
