This has happened twice today.

Outside temperate is about 7 - 10 Celsius.

I start the car, reverse out of the stall and proceed out of the lot at about 20 - 30 KM/H, at say 2000RPM.

Then all of the sudden, I hear engine revving and sure enough, RPM needle is jumping from 500RPM to 1500RPM, and this happened for about 4 or 5 times.

WTF??? Am I alone here?
