Got in the rabbit after work at about 7pm and started it up and it ran like crap. Sort of like it misfired and then went into EPC, Turned it off and restarted and ran fine without any CEL. Not sure why it wouldn't have tripped a light because of how it was running but anyway on my way home after it was warmed up the thing was running at 500 rpms, typically runs closer to 800.

The car has 3600 miles on the clock and has had no service as of yet.

I did notice that when the car is in N or P (auto) that there is a rev limiter limiting the car from going over 4000 rpms. Another thing that will annoy me. Not that I want to redline the thing in park but that 4000 seems a bit low. My first automatic commuter all my others have been MT.

Any clues out there as to what happened? I really don't want any take the car to the dealer responses, looking more for answers.

The only reason i would go to the dealer would be to trade it in for a CW R32.
