Is it going to be reduced ? do you agree that it is too high?
Are you operating your automatic transmission in manual mode and are you indicating that 4000 rpm is your shift point? As others have indicated, 4000 rpm can't possibly be what your engine is turning at highway cruising speed, unless you are holding it in 3rd gear. Please clarify your remarks for the benefit of those who answered your post. Thanks.
