Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Leading evidence: 'Set i got' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Set i got' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

If you push 1st into the red, is the car supposed to react in a kind of stall/loss of power?
Also, after about 16K miles my rear conti's are done, the fronts are fine. Should I replace the rears and keep the brand, or consider new tires and do all four? What do you like for an everyday drive (except winter).
Thanks for your inout.
Well, the fuel should cut out if you're deep enough in the red, so yes, I should it could feel that way.
16k on rears ain't bad at all. Usually the rule of thumb is swapping the fronts every other time you swap the rears. So stick with the fronts if they have ~>50% tread, and just get more Contis.
I always put SO2's on my 911 (when I had the C2). But tires are like ******** - everyone likes a different one! (Wait, I think I butchered that...)
Yes, that is the "rev. limiter" kicking in. As Porsche_Smile stated, it shuts off the gas temporarily to keep you from over reving the engine and blowing it up.
BTW - it works in all gears, not just 1st gear.
I've got 8.5K on Kumho Ecsta SPTs and it's replacement time. I'm re-ordering them to stay with the same F/R tire and will switch all 4 next time. Was trying them out for the value. FWIW - noise good, handling avg., treadlife crap and worst of all...variable and often terrible flatspotting overnight, leading me to believe there's some mftg. fluctuation/flaw. Hopefully it was just the set I got.

Flat spotting just appears to be normal. I've had Pirelli and Bridgestone tires and they all do the same thing overnight. I'm guessing weight over the rear tires, camber and softness of tires as the culprits here.
