anyone ever try this?
I used to do this in my auto probe gt back in the day, i know i know, none running exist in the world anymore. But has anyone with our cvt even by accident tried revving in neutral then throwing it in drive? Just curious as to how the belt driven cvt would react attached to all the other electrical components and sensors.

Never tried it and being that the cvt transmission is one of the more expensive parts on this car I wouldn't recommend it. It just sounds like trouble to me. But if you have the itch that bad, (NIKE) and let us know how it turns out.

I love the responses guys thanks. Anytime i need a good laugh i come here and see whats said lol. I know better than to do it, just wanted to see if anyone else has tried it. The Probe unfortunately was my first car and went through 2 engines and 2 transmissions. But that was 14 years ago (giving out my age i know). I had a 99 camaro once that was accidentally put into reverse while doing 70 on the highway and the car just shut down. Im assuming the cvt on this car is locked down so tight it might do the same thing. Ive come to terms with my max and its true potential and i dont race it, i just really do enjoy driving it. Its at 306/274 right now and im happy with it. Its starting to get cold here in vegas and the max is like, finally. But hoping to keep this car and this cvt for a long time. I watched a video of a company who rebuilds cvts and it was interesting to see how theyre built and utilized. I do see a difference now that i changed the fluid its much quicker off the line. I got 28 mpg my last trip to so. cali so im happy. Well, back to work. Thanks guys for the fun and opinions.
