Default limiter at 5k

I'm experiencing a limiter at 5,000 rpms. What could it be? No codes at all. Check engine light is working.

Reading owns both of us........

Drive around at different loads - let the engine break(engine break) sometimes........even at high rpms.........something has to trigger the check engine light......but the light won't come on until it has to actually use the sensor or whatever.

ummmm are you sure that you are running it to 5000 rpms when the engine is warmed to proper temp. it wont let you run it over 5 grand if the engine is cold.

The engine is at operating temperature. Still 5,000 rpm limiter. Feels good otherwise.
