If the maximum permissible vehicle speed for the current gear is exceeded, the tachometer needle may move into the red zone of the scale. If this occurs, you may feel the engine speed cycling. The engine control module then limits engine speed by reducing fuel supply. The engine returns to normal operation as soon as the tachometer needle leaves the red zone.
