Revs Drop Whilst Accelerating

Hi I've a 2004 IS200 which seems to have developed a slight fault. When I change into (usually only) 4th there is a slight dip in the revs when pulling away. This isnt as would be the case with bad driving! Its similar to the sound an automatic would make when changing up a gear. The acceleration seems ok, but just a dip in the engine revs. Has a full LSH, (apart from I'm a few months overdue, due to job issues :unsure: ) 60k miles an all else is fine.

It only seems to happen in 4th, although maybe 5th too. Think I'll turn the radio down for a while and listen carefully now...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance chaps.

Its been pretty long since u posted that but it might be clutch slipping ...

If the clutch was slipping, IMO the revs would then rise, not fall... Right? :winky:

Yes, but if clutch is hmm ... partly worn out and he changes from 3rd to 4th revs dont go down to 4k from 6.5k they just slowly go down and when clutch cathes good friction then they go up. I couldnt make it simpler with my english sorry i hope u get what i mean :P
