1998 Lumina High RPM'sjjones1193 01-12-2007, 04:01 AM Hello, I have a 1998 Lumina 3.1. The RPM's seem way too high while driving. Example: at a cruising speed of 55 MPH the RPM's run at 2500, at a cruising speed of 75 MPH the RPM's run at 3500. The car drives fine, I just feel the RPM's should drop once I get to a higher gear. Any guru's out there have any ideas? Thanks. jeffcoslacker 01-12-2007, 07:19 AM Stop on a entrance ramp and then count the upshifts. You should get three (1-2, 2-3, 3-4) Sounds like you're not hitting OD...could be a solenoid stuck or something more serious. jjones1193 01-12-2007, 12:50 PM Stop on a entrance ramp and then count the upshifts.

I guess that means new transmission. maxwedge 01-12-2007, 07:15 PM Maybe not, should be scanned with a trans function scanner for solenoid functions and slippage errors. The 4th gear clutch hub can cause this also. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
