Question RPM Question

Is there way to change the rpm's, I know its dumb to do that but I just want to change them where they cant go under 900 because I noticed it triggers the TCS and SLIP with CEL and starts that lamp mode. If you can help it would be very much appreciated.

I wouldnt chase the 'how to keep rpms above 900rpm' but rather chase 'why the TCS/SLIP/CEL come on when your rpms go below 900' rpm…

solve the problem not the symptoms...

Sorry I meant when I'm just sitting at a red light or parked sitting for a bet. TCS/SLIP/CEL comes on not sure why but Ive had my APP and Throttle body changed (free from the dealership) and changed the brakes and fluid etc etc etc...

I would search the internet and see what other people are doing? I did and sounds like it may be a few things...

What do you mean by 'had my APP changed free from the dealership' - what's the APP mean?

what codes are you getting when you scan the CEL? if you don't have a code reader, either A. go buy a decent one for $50 or B. go to the autoparts store - they will scan it for free.

Should have googled APP…I feel stupid…

I would google the hell out of P2138 and go from there - are you still under warranty?

Its all good about not knowing what it means, Ive Googled and did research and not even the dealership knows why this happens.
