I brought my Space Star to the 60000 km service today and for that reason, I testet the top speed with the old oil and revved up the motor a little after driving very slowly and economical for the last months. There has been tailwind with about 5 kph and so the car reached more than 190 kph on the speedometer very quickly (about 180-185 kph). But whenever driving more than 190 kph on the speedometer (or 120 mph?) the car will make a scary whistling or beeping sound as if there was a speed warning sound.
Does anyone know if there is a speed warning sound or where to get the info? And at 195 kph the car would not accelerate anymore if there was speed limiter, too.
The workshop employees didnīt know anything about it but only asked if the car would really drive that fast...
The Autobahn was empty and a lot of Audi and BMW passed me with higher speeds so I donīt want to begin a discussion if driving that speeds is save - I know, itīs not. But that noise was really scary and popped up again and again.
