    does it shift hard? if your shift indicators are wrong (putting you in 3rd gear instead of drive) you would have high rpms like that.... and the mode selector switch would be your culprit.. its pretty common on the VX

    I don't know how close you are to Chicago, but Nocturnal VX has recommended Espos garage, & I'm not 100% sure on the name...
    PM him if the Chicago area is an option.

    x2 on Espo's. His joint ain't far from Buffalo Grove and he serviced my VX before I made the drive from Chicago to Reno, and I am sure he is now both Gill and Cece's regular mech.

    About the trans, sounds like you definitely need to have it looked at by someone.

    x2. Make sure both your Power Mode & Winter Mode push-button switches are in the "OFF" (disengaged) position, and then take it out for a test drive again.
