Can you be more specific? What other symptoms do you have?

Coil pack maybe? Knackered spark plug?

It would help if you could give us a little more detailed info.

yea sorry. the revs sticks at 2500 revs the car does'nt lose speed tho it just stays at the speed. but if change gear that helps ?

You'll need to take it to a garage and get it connected up to get the fault codes read. Could be all sorts based on the above :/

So the car revs too 2500rpm whether its in neutral or in gear? Just sits at 2500rpm even with your foot of the accelerator? Or is it that you get to 2500rpm and the car stops accelerating?

If the car is sitting at 2500rpm then it might be worth cleaning your throttle body as that could be sticking.

If the car gets to 2500rpm then the car is in limp mode as there is a fault in which case its prob not a bad idea to get the car plugged in to a diagnostic machine which will identify the fault. Typically costs around £30 for a diagnostic.
