Is somebody can tell me if it's normal on those trans ? I'm affraid that my TC could be dying ...

Thanks for your help guys ... I had many more manual tranny in my life
i know that some trans will increase slightly in rpms like you are describing, but i am by no means a transmission expert though...but i'm sure someone one here can help ya out...
