    Not a transmission guy. But seems like 1500 rpms in 5th gear is over revved (the highest of your low end gears) and 1500 rpms too high (on the highest of your high end gears). Leaning towards trying a transmission filter change. Sounds plugged up,full of deposits.

    check it for VSS ore countershaft speed fault code.... becouse when transmission is in top gear it makes maximum vibration if any bearing is worn, also check for magnetic dirt on speed sensors
