Vehicle speed sensor bad .. speedo bad or rpm gauge bad .. no other way to lose road speed and have rpm down ..check your road speed against a gps app if it’s correct it’s the rpm gauge .. If it’s out then it’s in the speedo area or vss
Rpms causing shifting too early....2012 Cascadia

Chubby Fly and okiedokie Thank this.

Ok so I see original post has been edited to say transmission is a manual.
So I'm really not understanding the question. Why are you shifting it earlier now? Just run it like you did before.Bean Jr. and Chubby Fly Thank this. -
I'll go slow......my truck has10 gears, a clutch and shifter with splitter. The splitter goes up when I'm in high gear. I shift each gear with my right hand
When I shift into into 7th gear....I'm going 15-18mph because the rpms are reading 1500.
Do you think an rpm reading in 6th gear at 1500 rpm going 18mph is odd or not odd? Because previously when I'm going into 7th gear from 6th....I'm going 25mph at a1300 rpm reading.
Basically this is a "high rpm at low speed thread..." I shouldn't be in 9th gear already at 35mph.....why am I in 9th gear already? Because if I was still in 8th gear at 35mph...my rpm reading would probably be 2000.
I just need clear answers.....this post shouldn't be that hard to figure out.
Again....high rpm at low speeds.Last edited: Mar 29, 2020

Delete changed rear ratio in ecm possibly or rpm gauge is wrong..
AModelCat Thanks this. -
Ok I follow you now. Original post made it seem like something was telling you to shift earlier (or in the case of an auto, the transmission shifting too early).
If this started happening right after you did the thing we shall not speak of, I'd wager that some of the parameters in the flash file they used don't match the truck's specs.Magoo1968, Roberts450 and magoo68 Thank this.
