High RPM by funlover1(m): 7:02pm On May 02, 2016
I noticed this evening while driving home that my car's RPM suddenly shots up to about 4000 rpm,I was traveling at a speed of between 80 and 100km per hour. The car is a Toyota highlander 2003 with six plugs.

Is this normal/okay?

Would you advise that I keep driving it in this condition?

What could be the possible cause of this?

Gurus, pls advise me

You can still drive it, but expect higher than normal fuel consumption & excessive strain on your engine.
The choice is now entirely yours on what to do.

You are gradually killing the engine. Better get it fixed before it creates other problems for u aside digging holes in your pocket fuel wise. Meanwhile check the evap lines for cracked/leaking hose
