Default [HELP]2001 Accord having big problems.

Hello guys
My 2001 4cyl Auto. Accord EX with 58000KM recently started shaking a lot while idling in D4 or R but when i rev up above 1000RPM vibration goes away.

2nd problem:
when I cruise at 60km/h the RPM used to be at 1250 to be exact but couple of month ago, my car started to lose power/acceleration and when i cruise at steady 60km/h the RPM is way above than before which is 1800rpm
can anybody tell me what the problem is?
thanks in advance

Have you had your EGR valve checked at the dealer?
Some newer Accords have had EGR valve issue do mainly inpart to the winter blends of gas found in colder areas.

#2 sounds like the torque converter isn't locking like it should. That would explain the high revs, but not really the loss of power.
