Hi guys,
I've noticed that when I'm doing above like 67 my car sounds like it's slightly revving...almost like I need to shift again even though I'm in 5th.
I took it into the dealership and they said it was normal.
Just realized driving that my rpms are in the 3000-3200 range when I'm doing 70-75. This seems hi to me. Maybe it's not...but I just wanted your guys' opinion.

Thanks!

I don't know for sure what its suppose to be but 3k isn't high for a small 4 cylinder engine.

Do you have a 5 speed or a 6 speed?

I don't have the SI...it's just a 5 speed manual

Never noticed the sound/feel before. Feels like I need to shift.
But the dash is in the green and no check engine light or anything...

If you are in 5th gear at that time, that's all you can do.
You can't do anything to change gear ratios in it.

Ya, I understand that.
I guess my question is if the rpms are normal, or if there is something wrong with my transmission

I've had small cars before that were in the 2700 range when doing 70-75 so I assumed that was what was normal

OK then, yes it is normal.
