larry- i think you got it, mine was built in 12/09. it would be interesting to see if bpd's is the same as my build # & his are very close. but larry, you & chris's being even more different makes it even more strange.
& like the others the first time i hit the limiter i thought i had blown the engine as well.

That is different for me as the red only shows up after the engine has started. Engine off = no red.
I will have to double check. But the color looked like it was on the dial. And not from the back light.
But if that the case shining a flashlight on the area would illuminate the red area.

This morning after I read the comments, I knew I had a redline but I went out in the garage to check and with the engine off I found no evidence of the redline, so I started up. After a bit of the boot up process the red appeared. I would never would have noticed without this thread raising my curiosity.

Is your PCM up to date?  Maybe the latest updates include that redline feature?  Could Torrie add that in?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I'm not sure if the PCM is upto date or not. I bought the car in November from Chrysler so I'm not too sure. How would I check something like that? I'll have to ask Torrie if he has seen this before and if that can be added?

Bet you find out that it should. I think something must be wrong.

Here's a pic of my tach. It clearly has red at 6,500 rpm and does shift at 6,500. I have a semi early model though. It rolled off the line in December 2009.
