What engine? Your engine speed goes up to give you the additional power need to go up hills. If you push on the gas more you should be able to go faster up hills. 4,000 rpm is OK and higher engine speeds are just fine when passing,

Tune up almost every month. it has about 300,000 miles. My car loses its speed on uphill not matter how hard your press the accelerator.

I have the same exact problem with my 2010 Camry LE (345,000 miles) We have made multiple attempts to fix it but can’t figure out why it keeps happening. Please help!
