Still a new member to the Spd6 and lovin it but want to ask roughly what revs the change up lights flash up.
I'm a bit loathe to keep on going until I see one only for it to not be working and for me to cause some damage.

I'm pretty sure these rev higher than a standard motor but would like some advice.

Cheers

These can be adjusted, but this is the standard setting, so I understand.

Diagnostics screen (hold down fog-light & twiddly button for four seconds) lets you adjust all of them. Once the oil's completely up to temperature (i.e. 80 degrees), I have no concerns about hitting the change-up lights whilst pressing on. In fact, it's almost obligatory. Wouldn't dream of holding the car at those revs, mind (unless there happened to be an Autobahn nearby and I was in 5th )

Would suggest just setting green/amber to your "comfort zone" if you don't feel happy about pushing it that hard. Possibly leave red where it is, though, just in case you ever have some need/whatever to nail it...
