My car will drive fine in all gears, unless I rev to above about 3,500, at which point the car completely stops making power, and the car revs up extremely fast, as if it were in neutral. When I up shift or slow down to under 3000 rpm, the car resumes making power. The shifter doesn't move at all, and the clutch isn't in so I don't know what is causing it to internally shift into neutral. Thanks for your help
