Hi There, i have a question; My engine noise going loud when i hit the gas up to 3000 RPM,
so i always shift the gear every 3000 RPM and i feel it is too fast to shift gear on 3000 RPM,
i tried to rev further up 3000 RPM the car not going faster but the noise getting louder.
Im not sure whats the problem or need to be changed, thanks for advice.

What you described sounds like the clutch is slipping. If it's worn out, that can certainly be expected at the mileage you listed.
