    Downshifting is used more often...for passing, climbing, engine braking. You upshift when you feel there is no more need to be on the lower gear you're on. On auto mode, you probably won't ever need to upshift 1st w/o downshifting.
    Oh, step more on the gas pedal...there's a kickdown switch there, too....for the times you wanna pretend to drive angry.[emoji4]

    Hi sir se!
    Nope not my first car, i have a 06 m3 before but i never used mt ever.
    When i pressed the + it seems that nothing is happening, then when - was pressed rpm went higher. I thought that when + is pressed it will be faster, while on - as u press it, it will get slower. Tama ba sir se?

    I have also been wondering about the manumatic shifting... I assume the computer won't let you stall if on a higher gear and slowing down, so it will shift for you even if in manual mode? And will the indicator reflect the corrected gear when the car does this? We test drove an ecosport before and the gear indicator didn't seem to change, which would be confusing

    (Just about to get my car hopefully by weekend. Been using manual for 10 years)

    Grats!!! What did you get?
    Manual mode lets you do everything. Paddle shifting on D gives you temporary manual chores til the M on gauge display disappears.[emoji4]

    Sa Mz2 R ko, if I put the floorshifter in manumatic mode (+/- mode), the computer will wait for the driver to shift and yes it will stall if you do not pay attention. But if the floorshifter is in automode and I shift only using the paddles in the steering wheel, the computer will shift for me, if it receives no input for about half a minute.

    However in my Kia Sorento, even in manumatic mode, the computer will upshift and/or downshift for me especially if it detects I am about to stall or over-revving.

    Yes, I had it serviced there. All is well, I think. When I read your message, I was like, what's wrong with North EDSA??

    Happy for you, polar which kodo are you getting for yourself?
