I don't have paddle shifters, but a manual mode on my shifter, and for some reason, I'm always scared of going above 4000rpm bc I get anxious that my transmission will blow or something catastrophic. I know it won't, but the thought is still there and it stops me from having fun😂
I really appreciated the video! I checked a couple other videos before I got to this one and finally understood how to see, feel, and hear what would happen and how the car would react. Funny though, when I first attempted doing paddle shifters before seeing this video it sounded terrible and didn't understand why I went to such high RPM's; though after watching this video I had a better understanding and I had to test my new car in front of my "car-buff" uncle in-law I actually shifted properly with not being embarrassed and he really liked my new Nissan Altima SR. Other videos only showed the number changes and rpms but you couldn't hear or see the speed while on the road changes. This video was great. BRAVO!
Sport mode, in a lot of cars, also adds artificial engine noise. My 2020 330i does this and it can get annoying but you can turn it off in the settings.
Use paddle shifting to reduce use of the brake pedal/brakes. When coming to a stop sign or red light, shifters help slow the car down while using less brake. Done right, of course. ‘23 Camry SE
as i am gaining high speed i press the positive paddle shifters two times intermittently between and then at still high speed i press the negative paddle shifter to gain a huge boost of power! Am i not supposed to do this?
really appreciated your video but I have a question. when we slow down while in sports mode and then eventually stop, do we have to shift down? or can we stop and be done with it? Dad bought a new automatic car and I haven't driven it before.
Getting a muffler/resonator delete on my car, wanted to use my paddle shifters, when coming to a complete stop like at a red light do I have to down shift ?
You don’t ever have to down shift, only time you down shift is make some sound boom down shift you get the rumble now accelerate a little bit and throw it back in drive , then boom repeat
Question..when driving on auto gear sports mode..n going to overtake..do we 1.maintain gas pressure on pedal OR 2..lift it off for a second or two before engaging the paddle shifter for downshift. OR 2. Just Ease of the gas pedal a bit n then engage the downshift paddle shifter n press on gas again.
@@beeastman1235Your car will not let you cause damage. It is programmed to only let you shift to a gear if it is safe to do so. It may cause additional wear, but really no more than say aggressive acceleration would.
I’ma stranger when it comes to using the paddle shifters. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee as well and I love hearing it scream coming down a open street. I’m just not accustomed to how to use them like that and it is a mental thing cuz I thought I fucked sum shit up
I use the shifters since only recently I keep shifting at around 3 or so. But while on 4th gear I sometimes drive for a while while on 4 or 5 rpm. Is this safe?
Had to use these in Colorado. Wasn't sure how they worked. In an Acura RDX, you use them in sport mode. Seems like the rpms were high in 1st or 2nd gear. I tried not to brake so much. It was a little stressful. Hope I didn't ruin the engine.
Soo down shifting yo get into a stop, what you should do? Hit the brake and click the down shift multiple times until it’s on 1st to stop. That part you did not explain it at all
I use the paddle shifters primarily for fuel economy. I try to keep my rpms at or below 2000 rpms no matter what speed im at. Its a little game i play and i try to see if i can get my mpg close to 40 in my subaru crosstrek. Ive been able to get over 40 mpg for good stretches on the highway actually. This is the exact opposite thing to do if you’re going for that race car sound! LOL!
Hi, I’m driving a golf gti mk5 dsg. I’m wondering when driving in sports mode and coming to a stop, do I actually have to downshift automatically? I believe I down shifted to gear 1 too rapidly and my rpg surges and its somewhat jerks. Just doesn’t feel right.
Does it damage the transmission to keep the foot on the gas pedal while upshifting or downshifting? or viceversa, does it damages it to stop pressing the gas pedal while upshifting of downshifting?
Hey are you suppose to shift down each gear when slowing down or is it fine to let manual mode do it automatically. Bc it will do it on its own. But it skips a gear from like 3 to 1
I don’t really get the point when there is no clutch. Except Maybe using the engine to Slow down a bit in the snow rather than the brakes. Are you supposed to let off the gas quickly when you paddle shift up a gear??
In my auto car I have an old 2000 corolla Toyota and the only good way to use it is in the 2 where the good speed is 72km/h while going down hill engine braking, I was told it was for off Roading, but that's more down hill off Roading some shit idk,
On my 3rd WK2 at this point. No point in using the paddles for racing around in the Jeep. Press the shifter, wait...wait... oh there's the limiter.. oh...wait...there's the next gear. So it isn't useful for stoplight pulls because you will never get the next gear right. The faster the WK2 model, the more unlikely you can make the shift on time. In any model, i recommend traction control and whatever that eco mode does, turn them off is must, literally always. The larger motors 5.7 Hemi and up especially will break the tires loose and traction control will absolutely ruin your day. Def useful to know how to use gears on hilly terrain, coming down from a high speed because Sub SRT jeep brakes really suck. I only downshift to 2nd gear unless completely stopped. Tip, when coming down from high speeds to a stop, downshift down to 2 and then click the shifter over to automatic mode from about 15-25mph or so to avoid that harsh 1st gear downshift. I can't believe you did these mods to the V6. It isn't a bad engine, but it is a dog compared to any other variant. For me, i wouldn't take the risk of getting pulled over going slow in the noisy V6. To each their own though. I love that at a glance in your rearview it is hard to tell which jeep is which and i promise you upgrading to at least the 5.7 (my 2nd wk2) there is nothing like dogging a V6 who is driving fast in what looks like the same truck. They don't know until they see that front end lifting behind them or hear that sweet hemi v8 exhaust note in front of them. Even the 5.7 will run into the limiter at 118 pretty quickly. I'm not sure my V6 ever hit the limiter. Watched a few of your videos. Quality videos, no hate from me. I mean, i put an ARB bumper on my first wk2 V6 just to run things over.
So if I put my car In sports mode can. I just drive it without using the paddles? Would that hurt the car or do I have to use the paddles if I switch to sports mode?
Might depend on the car but in my car you have to press the paddle while in sports mode to activate manual mode. So yes, you should be able to drive in sport mode without paddle shifters.
I know I’m late but i have a 2009 Chevy Malibu and it doesn’t have the numbers to show what gear you are in. How do I know? Edit: I did notice when I shift up the rpm’s stay at 4k and when I downshift it goes to 3 and stays at 3.
I also had a 2018 Buick Cascada Automatic and when I went into manual and was shifting my pistons blew and my dealership told me that if I kept using manual my car would’ve broken down. Any reason why?
So it's safe to downshift, I'm still learning as we speak, I really want to get into getting better at driving, I have a shiftronic tranny in the veloster and I'm always scared to downshift because I don't need to blow my transmission lmfao
I've heard there's a feature where a person double taps the gas pedal while accelerating and this forces the car to change to shift up to the next gear right away instead of doing so on its own timing. I've tried this a few times with no luck. I haven't even been and to confirm or deny it exists. I have a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland I bought brand new. Can you tell us if it's a common feature or not or if it's even a real thing at all?
Yeah I am very scared to use the paddle shifters on on my Jeep but after seeing you doing it I might give it a shot I just don't want to ruin that transmission
I was like that to its not hard. Like he said you wont blow up your transmission😂 it has safety features to prevent you from making a big mistake when shifting. Just down shift at 1500-2500rpm and upshift at 3000-4000 just to get use to it. Trust me its less complicated than it seems
@@benyaminhekmat5517 It will lower it by itself if u dont do it. So you’ll never be at a stop in 4th gear for example. Also u can use it anytime road or freeway. Obviously on the road you’ll have to be down shifting and up shifting way more
Only time i use paddles is when it is really slippery. 8 gears in My pegeout 2019 5008 GT it is so damn clicky for casual driving it just suck. But if you want to pretend to be a f1 driver it may be fun
Totally love your channel. I've learned SO much from you about my new car that even the sales person at an authorized Jeep Dealership didn't know! * Success! I managed to answer my own question about the, "tapping the gas pedal" feature. Turns out it's for downshifting. Once I reach a stable speed: I lift my foot off the gas pedal to briefly and in a very shallow kind of way, tap my foot twice on the gas pedal. You only need to press the pedal down a tiny little bit and do not want to push it all the way down to the floor. For example, I was in 6th gear and did this and the engine dropped down to 4th gear. The car slowed my vehicle down and in a moment or two went back to its normal shifting patterns. I can see this being helpful if you want extra breaking assistance for a short time and I'm sure people can figure out their uses for it as well.
Thank you for doing this video, I’ve had my 2021 Nissan Altima for over a year, and just found out that I have paddle shifters (my son in law told me after driving my car) 😃😅
Green tape on the upshift and red tape on the downshift, for gear changes in corners, if your shifters move with the wheel. NOTE: With my Supercharged Jaguar, I once did a double downshift and blew fuel injectors and guess what - EXPENSIVE !!!

So here’s what you did or didn’t do because it’s hard to tell two days later in Mexico, you’re on the road you got your fingers on the paddle shifter, but I don’t know if you’re using the paddle shifter on the right because you’re not saying
well yeah youre more in tune with the car, but i like the convenience with the automatic sports cars etc, being able to slap it into manual mode whenever you wanna have a little fun, then being able to smack it right back into drive and get back to the business calls.
lol what, as long as youre not at too high of an RPM, where when you downshift itll blow it into super high RPMS, even potential redline; even then most cars ECU's wont let you downshift if its unsafe for the car at that current time. obviously you dont wanna be WOT when downshifting lol, what. but blipping the gas / having very little input on it, is actually good as you rev match it

Super useful when going down a steep hill. To save your brakes from overheating you can downshift once or twice to engine brake.
Remember, brakes are cheaper than an engine
To use down hill or not to use? That is the question...
Nope you should not do that. Engine $$$$$$$ VS brake $.
@@victorguerrero3197engine breaking is good for the engine if you do it right .. let's the oil circulate and cool the engine

@@alexisruiz6332 🥲👌
@@alexisruiz6332 yep 👍 or you can just switch to manual mode with the shifter and switch out
Can you down shift with the gas pedal still pressed in?
yes
Really great for down hill trailer towing. Allows motor braking rather than continual foot braking. Really useful for real downhills like in Colorado.
Definitely one of the added uses!!
Going up a hill, downshift to get more torque, surely lower revs in the engine’s optimal torque curve is better?
I love the guys, like you, in my neighbourhood, who like to "make noise", especially around 3 a.m.
so does paddle shifting driving damages the gear?
With gas prices the way they are I'm not even trying to press mine. Usually when I use the paddle shifter I add the sport mode on it 😅
Yeah, gas is wild right now, still gonna send it though! lmao
What about now are you buying gas?
When you shift do you take your foot off the gas then after you shift put your foot back on the gas or do you shift while on the gas
You can just keep your foot on the gas 👍🏻
Do you have to shift to 2nd when u want to stop?

If you are at 6k RPM and you downshift twice, will it let you blow the engine?

Mexico ain’t just desert man. Very biodiverse country
@@pinkuskii it was more a joke that this was filmed in testle trail rhode island and, in fact, not mexico
Yoo you drive with a dab pen too??😂
do you hafe to use the paddle shifters in sports mode bro 🤔
You don’t have to be in sport mode in all vehicles, you just need to have paddles enabled in other modes
lol "2 days later in mexico" cap
Nahhhh it was 2 days later in Mexico.....
Mexico bro, Mexico
Always Mexico
W kid laroi 🔥
I refuse to belive there are poeple who dont know how padle shifters work
30mph zone? Not a good idea with driveways on both sides. Good video otherwise.
Wow
For sure should not be accelerating while actively downshifting lmao
Wrong
lol what, as long as youre not at too high of an RPM, where when you downshift itll blow it into super high RPMS, even potential redline; even then most cars ECU's wont let you downshift if its unsafe for the car at that current time.
obviously you dont wanna be WOT when downshifting lol, what.
but blipping the gas / having very little input on it, is actually good as you rev match it
Do not self incriminate yourself buddy Xd.
I thought it was a useless paddle shifter video. Learned nothing and did not see anything useful
Talk slower!
Listen faster!
Too much talking made it nonsense
I didn’t ask
Would be a good video if he didn't talk so fast
