Have your car looked at ASAP.

as far as over revving goes....from my knowledge the type of over rev you need to worry about is a misdownshift...for example at 90mph a fourth to second instead of fourth to third. that's a real over rev, whereas slamming the rev limiter into the red ripping through the gears is less of a big deal.
you might know this but it's something i learned so it might teach someone something new..

^^^ exactly... Ive bounced my car off the revlimiter so many times... thats no big deal. its when you downshift and mechanically overrev the engine, thats bad and can cause some bent valves.
