Hello: Just wondering what should be the RPM for the ST Hatchback with 1.8L engine at say 70MPH and 80MPH in 5th gear. I drove the first time on highway and was hitting 4000 @80 to 85PMH. Is this normal? I have not bled the clutch yet or changed the oil in the transmission (that is next).
Please let me know. Thanks |

Every car is different. The 4th gen F-body with the 6-speed is only churning some 1500 rpm's at 70 mph.
