Every scene of this video was filmed in Tijuana, MX.
In a closed environment.
FYI him saying "your car will blow up if you try downshift to lower gears going 100mph" is incorrect, possibly he has an ECU tune but semi automatic cars like the one he is driving will NOT let you downshift to gears that would exceed MAX rpm for the gear and cause catastrophic damage, basically said = your car will NOT let you destroy it with fast, high RPM downshifts to lower gears, it essentially locks lower gears that would cause damage if shifted to going fast. Nice vid tho!
I can confirm this. Even in my 2009 w204 c class it won't allow you. At low speeds you can shift to 1st or 2nd gear, but at 100+ kph it won't drop below 3
Is this the same for being in Manual mode tho with the semi-automatic car?
True. It's even written in the 3 series official owner's manual.
He said to shift in lower rpm when cruising and to shift at a higher rpm when racing. But why can’t I shift in a higher rpm when cruising ? I have a b58 and the redline is at 7k. Supposedly shifting near the redline won’t damage anything . But is it safe to to push it to 6k rpm while pushing 60-70% on the pedal ?
@@shelbyhaiketic4212the ecu won’t allow you to mess anything up, it’s programmed in a way to prevent any damage, if you start to hit redline it will more than likely shift for you. Unless you got a tune to change it
This is the perfect explanation. From someone who’s always driven automatic it’s hard to wrap my head around.
Glad you enjoyed it man
This was a really good tutorial video! I have a 2011 335i and I haven’t been using my paddle shifters but im going to try to use them more often because my car does pop when it downshifts.
Glad to help man!

Great Video! I'm picking up my 2016 340i tomorrow!
Nice congrats on the new car!
I use the paddle shifters all the time, not just when im going fast. My transmissions computer is stupid and it doesn't know when to shift for good gas mileage. It's better to use them all the time because you have alot more control, I'd prefer stick shift for sure. SMG in an e46 is horrible need to convert soon
Sheeeshhh great video bro!
Thanks Zay!
Really helpful and nice video.
Glad to help!
The man edwin with another banger 🔥🔥🔥🔥✨
Thanks my g 🔥🔥
When I was learning in a normal car - 0 to 10 1st, 2nd 10 to 20, etc 5th/6th 40mph and above.
I have a 2013 Subrua Legacy and it has the paddle shifters I never learned how to use them correctly so great video!!!
you mean Subaru?

that was amazing 👏
say your roll racing from 40, 50, 60 mph, do you wanna be in 3rd gear or 4th just on the 3000rpm (cause then using anti lag and flooring it then release anti lag gonna shoot you forward right??
then from there on out keep shifting at 6 .1/2 and again at 5000 to keep the boost going right??
so when u say u r cruising then if u go to 6 k rpm its damaging the car but if u r racing the car kind of hears that u said that u r racing and then it adapts and conquers and doesnt get damaged by 6 k rpm i dont understand
Just look at the rpm’s when it’s in automatic. 🤷🏾♂️. Best way to learn in my opinion . That’s how I learned I’m my 230i. my 230i down shifts on its own too… but the 230i is like a beginners bmw. It’s still very quick…
Thank you man
🔥
can u gimme a link to the blue trim pieces u got in ur car? i got the same color as urs f32 435i m
So I have a BMW 335i 2012 twin turbo , will my car make that pop noise when I down shift ?
only if you get a cat back exhaust or any exhaust on it.
What are you clocking for the 1 2 3
So do you still heel & toe on paddle shifted downshifts as you would on a manual?
No because you don't have a clutch do you know what heel and toe is?
Do you have to let go the gas pedal when you change gear or you can keep your foot on the pedal
Keep your foot on the pedal
does anyone know how do i use the paddle shifts in automatic mode for a bmw 1 series i've tried everything but whenever i use it it's stuck in manual mode pls help!!!😢
Alright, so let’s say I’m in 6th gear going like 60 on the freeway and someone pulls up wanting to do a 40 roll. I need to downshift and slow my car down to prep for that. Would I continue to lightly hold the gas while downshifting to 3rd or would I let off of the throttle while downshifting?
Follow up question, if I’m already at 40 and I’m in 6th but I need to downshift to 3rd and stay at 40 would I continue to hold the throttle down while downshifting to maintain that 40 roll?
Hopefully these questions make sense.
If you're not going fast (65 or less) the trans is normally cruising in 8th, you can safely downshift with the gas on, as long as you keep an eye out for the rpms, you don't want to force the car too much.
Yeah, when you get to third, lift your foot slightly, just press it a bit, because of the low gear your car will make your cars rpms keep going up, so when you get to 40, just lightly press and it will keep the speed. (don't stay in 3rd gear so long tho)
You can also adjust your speed and hold the downshift pedal, so the car chooses the lowest possible gear.
Wow Christopher Columbus discovery 😂
About to try it out my. 650i N63TU just bought down pipes and air intake
Thank you just bought bmw 235i grand coupe paddle shift is a different world . Thank you
I have a 2020 Kia Soul turbo that thing flies with paddle shifters when I use them.
what kind of car do you have bro?
He said to shift in lower rpm when cruising and to shift at a higher rpm when racing. But why can’t I shift in a higher rpm when cruising ? I have a b58 and the redline is at 7k. Supposedly shifting near the redline won’t damage anything . But is it safe to to push it to 6k rpm while pushing 60-70% on the pedal ?
Sure. See what happens
Your car.
I use paddle shifters for fuel economy. Just get up to higher gears and lower rpm
So In my bmw 328i I can use the paddle shifters while in normal drive ?
Ofc
Gotta question because yo bmw looks like mines what do it take I’m not sure what it takes Ik it doesn’t take 87 so what dose it take? At gas station
Premium gas
mine still automatically changes for me even on semi automatic, how do i fix?
To be honest if you were trying to race but didn't know what revs were or when to shift gear you probably shouldn't be racing 🤣😂🤣
Bro this has me dead 😂😂
@@Edwinf30 Just saying lol.... enjoy your videos though. Keep it up 👍
Mini cooper automatic also has paddle shifters
most modern cars do lmao
@@LeSwexy well mine is 2009 not so modern like now
@@roymilla6636 09 is pretty much modern spec aye, 95ish - now cars have had semi auto transmissions
Oh ok I'm just getting into cars so I'm not well knowledgeable yet
theres really no wrong way on driving with paddles. all you really have to do is listen to the car and it'll tell you when to shift. with bmw try to stay above 2k rpms when driving cause it'll drive rough. it does with m cars but not really sure for other bmws. when trying to go fast like on your own time for fun try not to go past 6k rpms cause if you do that every time, your wearing down the engine and trans a lot faster than you should. if your doing a drag race or a pull on the highway then you can go all the way. also when you reach 7k rpm it will auto shift in bmws
How do you recover after accidentally hitting the down shift paddle in a reg drive mode??
grab your gear select and put it back into automatic. practice that before you practice this.
For dodge you hold up shift.
i just get confused w the gears 😭 i gotta genny coupe still figuring her out haha
fr me too
bmws with smg trans have a clutch
I’m so bad at downshifting💀. Went from 3-2-1 at traffic stop and RPM sky rocket. Totally forgot it does that.
We all learn by messin up bro, I’m learning now n was messing up so much til someone taught me
I still miss my real Manual BMW 5 speed
That must have felt fast man!
Yeah I’m not even gonna bother LMAO my sport mode is fast enough on automatic
So u only press the right paddle ?
Left is used to lower the gears
🤦♂️oh my.. please have someone go with you and teach before you try this on the road.
i have a problem downshifting
so how do you downshift
I think downshift is for speeding up, so when I try to downshift from 5th to 4th gear at 50mph it goes more faster and it feels more sportier
That's got to be bait 😂😂
@@MrBenoJacko I don’t think so dude💀
@@MrBenoJacko but I mean there are times you can downshift while moving, especially on these automics with sport mode. It all has protection, it’s not like driving an actual manual than can be damaged
Drop a gear and disappear.
Downshifting helps you to accelerate faster, just remember to upshot again before the red line
I have a question? When downshifting you still press the gas?
Well it depends, most of the times downshifting is for slowing down, in that case yeah, but if trying to do a pull, I’m still pressing the gas trying to get to the right gear
@@Edwinf30 What do you mean by “doing a pull?” Thank you
How do you know when to shift down
I know this moron doesn’t respond
When someone pulls up next to you and starts honking 3x 😂
@@boosted6ers HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH COMEDY GOLD BRO
Soo when racing u wanna use more rpms. 5-6 And when cruising shift at 3-4
Opposite, you wanna get into those lower gears when you’re getting ready to do a pull so you get more power on the jump.
@@sean--4000 pretty much what i said
@@sean--4000 i was talking about rpm not gears. But yehh pretty much wat i was saying is when racing you wanna use those lower gears so u use more rpm’s thus getting more performance and power out of the car
I am viewing this after blowing my transmission 😢 cuz of high rpm gear shifting and drifting
Why does 1st gear last so short and lame compared to chad 6th gear that lasts forever. Whats the point of each different gear ?
i think its just cuz its easier for the car to pick up speed when its already at a low speed and as you get faster the acceleration gets slower
The reason the higher gears are longer is for the fuel economy
Different gear ratios
lol ,
1st method , you put you car in sport mode , then left , stay in S1-S8 and look what the car is doing . it's knowing himself better than you .
2nd method , you get the charts of the torque vs HP , and when the torque and HP crosses , it's the time to change gears .
Thanks guys
This looks like Porter ranch lol
Lol at this guy explaining how to shift an automatic car properly. Dude, you just hit the paddles and it does it all for you. I'm 36 and have driven manual cars(Contour SVT, Gti, Camaro SS)my entire life until I got an auto Stinger GT because of having 2 kids. I can't believe kids these days are trying to explain how to shift autos. This makes me so sad.
Yeah I know, my first car was at 15, manual transmission, I still have it and it’s my daily, and I would take a manual car over an automatic any day.
Yeah Kevin, i think none of them have really driving license or drive experience.. otherwise they bit low on iQ
@@Edwinf30 Hey, man I’m 17 and I just wanted to ask if when I’m upshifting do I remove my feet or just continue pressing the gas?
You're so fucking cool Kevin.
Your time is over old man. Soon you will have a car with no steering wheel and no gas. And you will like it. Old people dumb as hell ong. Fr fr. Get over ya selves. Sound maaaddd goofy. Manuals are stupid.

Not sure why you keep referring to “racing”. This is a street car. Are you saying you actually race on public streets?
12 mins of epilepsy. yeez.
Waghhhhhhhhhhhhhg….you know what I mean right
omg dude stop complaining ab it being called manual get to the point
This guide and that ´´good tips´´ seems to me so ridiculous when I´m manual transmission guy ... it all looks like a guide for kindergarden 😂
Bro I feel haha, I learned how to drive in a manual car, that’s all my dad had so I took my test and everything in a stick, and until now my daily is still a manual
@@Edwinf30 Then I´m happy for you, because a lot of people in US don´t know how to drive a stick
what car is that
Bmw 335
@@Edwinf30 what car should i buy if i only have $10000?
@@platinum1640 if you like bmw start w a 328i w low miles and keep a couple thousand just in case something goes wrong.
Learn to drive with manual and than paddels will come natural listening to the engine
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I just thought this was common sense? But apparently not… at least not for Americans😂
And also driving at 4000-5000 RPM’s won’t destroy your car. Sure it will wear the engine down quicker long term but it won’t immediately self destruct
too much talking not enough info
I read comments and i cant believe man… how tf yall dont know how to use shifters?? It’s basically SAME SH1T like driving a manual auto…..
Hey, man I’m 17 and I just wanted to ask if when I’m upshifting do I remove my feet or just continue pressing the gas?
@@liklhomie9991 continue pressing the gas, let go of the gas on downshifts tho
I miss my manual car 🫠
