I just got my car back from the tranny shop 2nd time, where they did a "complete rebuild" on it, Monday I can return it 2nd time within a month because they don't know what they are doing.

Cutting it short, I took the Maxima in because of loud whirling noise from the tranny, but other than that no problem. Today on my way home I noticed, that in 5th gear the engine rpm is 3000 but the car speed was only 65mph.
The jerks replaced something or everything in the differential but I'd bet they put in a part from a different Maxima model or year, probably a nissan pickup truck, I really don't know.

Does someone has some kind of chart what RPM you supposed to get at what speed and in what gear?

If I recall, I used to drive at 75mph at 2500rpm and 85mph at 3000 rpm in 5th speed but I could be wrong, I never had the intention to memorize these numbers.

The shop had my car for a whole week two times already, this is going to be the 3rd times, and since I only have this car, I have to rent one if I want to go work and get paid.

Do you guys have any tipp on what should I do next? Should I take the car back AS MANY times AS MANY times they screw it up and spend $125/week on rental car THAT MANY TIMES? Is the Bureau of Auto Repair good for anything?

Make sure you Ask them to check the gear ratios , that could be the problem maybe they couldent find the ratios for a 88 maxima , So they put the closest Gear ratios , To your Vel I have the least clue sorry..
