You might consider converting your kmph to mph for us old Yanks who just dont want to change. Curious....what were you used to seeing in RPM at this speed? Any warning lights on or flashing when the engine is running? Automatic Transnmissions these days have computer controlled....Torque Converter Clutches istalled. You might have a trans. Issue. We typically road test the vehicle with a scan tool which will allow us to watch the computer shift the vehicle throughout its up and down shift function. And....we monitor TCC function. What do you think about a full diagnosis from a dealer or trans shop? Lets see if there is a FUSE....in that TCC circuit.
