  • 5th gear

    For some reason when I am on the interstate and I shift into fifth, I feel a different more noticeable vibration just above 2000 rpm's. I know it has to be 5th because it doesn't do it in any other gear. Has anyone had this happen, or would this just be normal?

      I would say its from lack of tourque at that low of rpm in 5th gear.
