driving below 2800 RPM = trouble?

[Lobo1186]

its not there are all too many failures out there I just think what this thread is trying to say that is IF there is a failure its in car that hasnt been pushed at all and is kept at very low revs.

Something doesn't add up

1. TIP is not known for IMS failures. TIP usually keeps car at Very Very low RPM's, usually around 1500-2000 RPM's. If we take a driver that doesn't push the car.. it will never go above 4K PRM
-- This is very different from:
2. Driving a manual transmission under 2800 RPM = trouble

Logically.. to avoid IMS failures.. you should start in 2nd and rarely get to 2800RPM.. to simulate TIP.... (and of course don't push hard in low rpms)

am I missing something?
