5th Gear high RPM

Hey there, I've recently got a used 2009 Civic manual. I'm on 5th gear and the RPM is running at about 3,000 (at about 110-120km/h) I was wondering if this is normal

as I have another civic auto transmission the RPM is at 2,500 at the same speed

please let me know if there are any potential problems with my car or this is how the manual transmission is

thanks

Jeff

Re: 5th Gear high RPM

That seems about normal to me...My car sits at about 3k rpm when I'm doing 115-120
