EP light??
i own a stock MC auto and i was driving it yesterday when out of nowhere the cars RPM started going crazy reving up and down without me hitting the accelerator and then when i came to a stop light the car reved down to about about 1500-2000 rpm and wouldnt pick up, the car barely budged and following that the EP light and service engine lights came on. The car would barely move in both reverse and drive but everything thing else is working. Can anyone give some insight?

And it's not possible to due a neutral drop in my MC with a CVT. I can rev it in neutral but the transmission won't shift into drive until the rpm's drop. Even power braking it at a stop the engine won't rev much past 2,000 rpm's.
I don't think using the features in the CVT like the sport drive or the manual shifting is abusing it. Plus with the rpm cutoff it doesn't rev above the 6,000 rpm max of the CVT anyway. I would ask them to be more specific about how they say you abused the transmission. Then ask which of them has ever owned a CVT MC and for how long. It seems the people with the worst opinions of CVT's are ones you have never owned one.

yeah and now they said its the entire tranny that needs to be replaced so that blows. I am going to inquire as to specifically how this happen. They sadi it was because of using the car in sprots mode, manual shifting too much. since im out of warranty by a couple thousand miles, mini agreed to pay for parts so i have to pay for a labor: $2500
