reving engine in park

[sadiespider]

hello
I have a 2017 124 spider . I started it today and when I revved the engine in park it wouldn't rev over 3000 rpm, is that normal?

YES.. A lot of modern cars employ a rev limiter if not in gear.

I hope is was thoroughly warm if not hot before you revved it.
