Red flashing light and bleeping help

[snowwolf]

I was accelerating from standstill, nothing hard really, but heard bleeping and a red light flashing in between 6k & 7k on rev clock, not sure what that was about, it's done it 3 times now, any suggestions?

Red light, beep and lcd display message mean the car is not fully up to temperature and you are using too many rpm too soon. The warning is there to protect engine and transmission from full load use untill the oil is up to temperature.

My thoughts aswell.

05 CV8's don't have change up alarm. Well, mine doesn't.

that goes off at about 3/4k rpm not 6/7k rpm

Snowolf was describing the position of the red light in the cluster not the actual engine rpm that triggered it.

He also said between 6k to 7k on the rev counter as well

Ahem,
