What is your question?
Is it the clutch, pressure plate, transmission, low battery, module for gears to tach link?
My car revs up to 5-6 thousand rpm when IN gear. I drove it last night in 5th gear, and the Change Gear warning light kept coming on while I was trying to
"Baby" it to get to speed to enter the
Interstate. (Duh, there are only 5 gears)
Hears the game changer, for me;
Once I got the car up to 65 mph, after several attempts, I locked it in with Cruise Control. The gears and Tachometer behaved well, except for a little dropping during mild uphill incline.
Then when going back to gear shifting in the city, it went back to misbehaving.
I've had to charge my battery a few times recently, and I just don't know if there is a link from the"BRAIN" that could be causing some of these problems VS new clutch, pressure plate, and possibly a new/used Transmission.
PS. I'm broke.
Could a bad battery cause the BRAIN to send false messages?
Thanks for any ideas that may help!
Sincerely , Pam
What makes this problem better or worse?
It's worse driving without Cruise Control on
