So the groups have nothing to do with it?
No. I'm using a Group 2 (GTI) JB4 on my 1.8T.

No concern though right? I've accidentally done it 3-4 times since I've had the car (loud music plus looking away for a split second, plus underestimating how quick I can go through second gear had me do it)Fuel cuts off.
Maybe mine is messed up. All I know is if I touch the hash mark once the door locks and if I touch it again right away it unlocks. I just found that out accidentally.also the behavior I’m describing is consistent on my parents’ 2017 Passat SE as well as my previous 2015 GTI SE. so either they did something different for 2018 model year golfs or y’all have it twisted
Nope no concern. It's cutting the fuel to prevent over revving the engine. You should tell EQT.No concern though right?

It’s for marketing/data purposes on BMs’s side. They just wanna know how big the market for 1.8 vs 2.0 isSo the groups have nothing to do with it?
Should it not be doing that? Sorry, not understanding why I should tell them.Nope no concern. It's cutting the fuel to prevent over revving the engine. You should tell EQT.
No idea why you should tell them. Jim’s just old lolShould it not be doing that? Sorry, not understanding why I should tell them.
You should tell them that because you shouldn't be hitting redline and getting the fuel cut. It should shift before that happens. Not that you race anyone but if you do what's happening is not desirable and would cost you in a close race.Should it not be doing that? Sorry, not understanding why I should tell them.
Gotcha. I picked the option for it to not autoshift up though, so it's working as intended.You should tell them that because you shouldn't be hitting redline and getting the fuel cut.

Just curious what your reason was?Gotcha. I picked the option for it to not autoshift up though, so it's working as intended.

He was being facetious.The engine doesn't explode when you hit red line.
