I have FAW X80 car and there is a problem with it. It shifts gear early like at sixty km/h my car shifts to sixth and the engine screams and overtaking cannot be done.

I would start with getting the transmission code checked to see if there are any fault codes, and also a live date read on the trans will show any problems as well, there are many problems with transmissions that can cause these symptoms so we need some hard data to work with first.

You could have a plugged exhaust system due to damage like the car has been bottomed out.

Please let us know what happens, we are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
