[s-cars] Fw: (Non-S car content) A4's RPM

[Calvin & Diana Craig]

John,

This is definitely not normal.  I can't imagine that this should be over
3000-3500 rpm, or so.  Has this been the way the car has always been or
something more recent?  It is either one of two things:

1) Bad tach or bad signal getting to it -- most likely
2) A clutch that is slipping A LOT!! -- unlikely you wouldn't notice any
other problems

Hello,

Sorry for the Non-S car content. Maybe you guys can help out my friend here:

Audi A4, 1999, 2.8 Quattro, 5-sp. At 120Km/h, the RPM shows 4,900 to 5,000
in 5th gear. Is this normal? Red line is 6,300 RPM.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
John Hosi.
93 S4.
