Default High RPM
Hey all!

I drive a 97 (automatic), and I've recently noticed my RPM's are running high, especially at low speeds (30-50km/hr). There also seems to be some lugging occasionally when moving through the lower gears. My fuel consumption has gone out the window and I'm worried what this could all mean...

Please, any suggestion??
Thanks.
