what do you mean? what gear? You mean you start out in first and it won't go farther than 3500? or do you mean your in fifth? cause would be about right, for normal highway driving.

Well the car will just bog out at 3,500 rpm in any gear it doesn't matter but it will let me change gears and keep going. And yeah the check engine is on i just haven't had a chance to get it checked out by anyone yet but I'm taking it in on Monday morning to get it checked out. And it's not a problem about driving it around like how it is but it's just no fun. When I have half of my rpm's left it's pointless in having a manual you know....But thanks to all that replied if anyone can get anything from this it would really help. I'll let you know what the mechanic says after I get it checked out. Mike

whoa man take it easy.


now for madscientist: the ecu is either bogged down, or the throttle position sensor is burnt. my car did the same thing when i forgot it disconected.
