When I drive the car and try to shift into higher gear or lower one I press the clcomparison with all similar car.
Pedal to shift gear but I noticed that the engine rpm is at 1500 to 2000 and not slowly drop to750 rpm to move on next gear.
so the rpm should drop down to idle. But in my car it takes more time to drop in comparison with similar car.
I have no trouble codes everything seems OK.
I have tried to drive another cars like mine and they all seem good and none of them has a problem in driving like mine.
please help me solve the problem.

Thank you for your reply.
But trusproblemhave done all of what you have mentioned.
And also I replaced head gasket, intake manifold
gasket and throttle body gasket.
So I dont think the reason of that problem is because of a vaccum leak.
Thank you for your patience.
Are there any other possible reasons for my car problem?

This is the only thing I can think of check intake vacuum at idle if 15" or below suspect a clogged exhaust system. I can't think of anything else unless I physically looked at it.
