Carl Dejoie you right know and days very body fucking for gets to use there blinkers you can’t imagine how many people I see everyday that don’t use there blinkers.
I think automanual is the way to go if you depend on the car everyday. You can go full auto while drinking some coffee in commute & have a little manual fun on the weekends.
@@devanarayanan1243 You don't HAVE to. It's called power shifting, you won't lose speed slightly and may feel a jolt when doing so. But it's not recommended as it can increase the wear on your transmission. Best practice is to take your foot off the gas when shifting.
@@lonelysignalbox Hell yea, how you liking it so far? im about to get the same car (Scion FR-S) and im here because i want an automatic but i wanna still drive it like a manual occasionally
1. You Don't need to let foot off accelerator when using paddle shifters. 2. You don't need to use paddle shifters. 3. Use 100% acceleration and most automatic cars will downshift automatically. 4. Try downshifting in drive mode. most paddles will throw you down a gear for passing acceleration necessity. 5. Maintain your car for best performance.
Tip for everyone: DONT DOWNSHIFT TO FIRST GEAR. It’s really bad for your engine and it’ll automatically do it for you, if you’re going 8mph it’s fine but it’ll auto shift at 6mph
@@every_thing_wood1251 first is kinda like a starting gear to take off from a stop, if u do downshift to first it might put some strain on the transmission. I just go from second to neutral and use the break to slow down
@@autechrefan1395 Because if you've never driven a manual transmission you'll have a harder time figuring out how to use shift paddles on an automatic. If you've driven MT it's common sense baby stuff compared to MT.
Severe engine damage is not going to result from hitting the rev limiter lol, i mean its not good for you engine but its not going to destroy it or "severely damage" it.
Yea was gonna say, C63 and Chrysler 300 SRT that I've driven all auto shift at the red line. Thats why I always find it slightly funny when people 'test' the car and try to shift up on their own like they're gonna out shift the car's configuration.
2nd (if you know how to drive) drive and shift when you feel like it just make sure your not redlining or not shifting at all (unless your staying in one gear cruising)
Will it let you upshift regardless of your speed, or is there a minimum RPM that has to be reached before it will let you upshift, or before it automatically downshifts?
in manual cars, if you dont upshift, youll blow your pistons out of your hood. but id say for first gear your mph should be 10-15, maybe 20, and then 2nd gear should be around 25-35, 3rd should be around 40-60, and so on
My 2017 VW Passat R Line has paddle shifters, and you do not need to engage the Tiptronic on the gear selector to use the paddle shifters. It's an either/or.
Sorry super new to paddle shifting and manual mode but can you tell me exactly what RPMs I need to be between when I shift. Thanks and I drive a 2017 mustang
Wow I didn’t know how to use my paddle shifters until now! I thought they were my blinkers so whenever I press them my engine revs up. Thank you this helped me so much!
I drive stick and I drove a car that had paddle shifters once just to see what it was like and man I think that crap is more confusing without the clutch
So how would you come to a stop in this mode? Like would you have to downshift all the way down till you get back to first gear and then can you stop? Or can you just stop straight up
question I'm new to paddle shifting, I know for lower rpms you get more HP if I'm taking my time to work but paddling when needed should I be I'm a higher gear? 7,8,9? The RPMs seem lower then, and if I'm gunning it downshift to like 3,4 ? Please Advise thank you in advance.
Modern Muscle213 omg these cars are the best. I'm an idiot kid that likes manual but I don't know how to use a clutch and my dad's car has a manual mode
My journey has 6 and it's my shift knob I move right to up shift move left to down shift. Just discovered this today that I can take my auto to manual and I've had that damn thing almost 2 years now 🤣
emrecan elmas you can either drive your car in manual mode or in automatic mode. If you switch manual/paddle shift mode to automatic, the car will runs in fully automatic mode.. only thing is that you can't switch it while the car is running.
Modern Muscle when you are going to upshift, do you let go of the throttle, and then press down on it again when your paddle upshift is done? Accelerator = throttle
I have a BMW 340i and only used the shifters once. I wasn't sure whether to hold the accelerator when shifting or come off the accelerator and then shift, I didn't want to risk any damage so I haven't tried it again. I want to give it another go today, what shall I do, press the accelerator or come off it when shifting?

Going in complete stop is confusing cause you have to lower gears, in a manual transmission just clutch in, brake and neutral.
Those downshifts 🤩
I can't believe there's a tutorial for this..
So how would you come to a stop in this mode? Like would you have to downshift all the way down till you get back to first gear and then can you stop? Or can you just stop straight up
If you forget the car will downshift to 1 automatically when coming to a stop
That’s what those things are 🤣🤣🤣wow I never knew 😁

Do you just continue stepping on it? Or do you slowly step, or you lift up your leg, shift up, then step
u don’t have to lift your foot
Do you have to come off the Excelerator to shift up or down?
You should do a tutorial on how to start the engine
What happens when you slow down when at a higher gear in tiptronic mode? Does the vehicle shutdown?
Do a review on how to get in your own car.

For the downshift, you have HAVE to go to the 1500-1000 to downshift or is 2000 ok?
anywhere between 1000-2000 i usually downshift when it’s at 1500

Accelerator = throttle
do you dont need to, just never upshift while on brake and downshift while on gas of course.
so for an automatic car with paddle shifts, does the car have more power when you use paddle shifts or when it is in automatic drive gear?
Automatic
Sport mode obviously...
No still have the same hp ect and you can have better performance.
