Q: Isit normal for my car to shift between 2000 RPMs and 3000 rpms
My car shift between 2000 RPMs and 3000 rpms when taking off fast, but when taking off at normal speed it shifts between 1500 rpms and 2000 RPMs? Is that normal?
My car has 122400 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
Hello, thanks for writing in about your Chrysler Voyager. The shift RPMs will be higher if you are further down on the throttle on faster acceleration. Shifting between 2000 and 3000 is normal.
