Fun fact: if you hold the + paddle while in sport & paddle mode on the transmission, it'll revert back to automatic so you don't have to switch into D then back to S if you're done using the paddles 👍🏼
Another fun fact, if you are in sport on the transmission and have paddle shifters engaged say you hit a stop light, you can shift up to second from a FULL STOP and it will take off in second giving you a but more boost, also good if youre just driving around a mall parking lot or stores, not too loud but can be revved if you wanna show off some lmao
Yeah that’s a good point. Some boosted cars actually have a tune to launch on 2nd gear to avoid wheel spin with so much power lol. Corsa is too loud so maybe I gotta try it out to not be too obnoxious
One thing you forgot to mention is that if you put the transmission in sport mode and then use the paddles they lock in manual mode, but you can put it back in auto mode by pulling and holding both paddles for a few seconds.
@@Red5ohyou said the response for the paddle shifters are so quick. But mine are the opposite. It takes like an entire second to shift when I click it.
If you pick "S" on your transmission lever, car downshifts for you when coming to lights. You stop and you are on 1st gear. If light turn green, you move the car. So if you forget to paddle shift gear, Stang stays at 1st gear on redline or just upshift gear to 2nd and so on?
If the paddles are activated and you’re in S mode then it won’t shift after you accelerate from the light. It would hit the rev limiter in 1st gear. However if the paddles aren’t activated and you’re in S mode then it would shift automatically for you 1-2-3-4 etc.
What rpm do you usually downshift at for second to first when coming to a stop light. I have had my eco boost for about a month now and I can nail my other shifts but second to first is giving me a good jerk. Also nice gt!
Yeah 2nd to 1st can be jerky. I actually just let it downshift for me. When you’re coming to a stop even in full manual mode the car will do drop gears for you automatically so 2-1 is done by the car
It should have firm shifts but not harsh shifts. There’s a difference. If it’s harsh where shift doesn’t feel right then you might need a transmission update
Great video! So I have a bit of a problem, my 2021 mustang gt 5.0 PP1 only gets like 225 miles on a full tank of 93 gas. Lately, a full tank is only giving me 190 miles. I saw that I had 14mpg when I think it’s supposed to be like 21mpg or so. I have an automatic transmission. Lastly, since the car is 16 gallons, how come when I’m filling it up at the gas station it only filled up to 10 gallons? I usually fill when I’m around 50 miles to empty.
How are your driving habits? If you drive aggressively I can see those kind of numbers. When I fill up around 10 miles to E I get out a mount 14 gallons so 10 gallons isn’t too far off for 50 miles to E especially if. You get 14 mpg or so
@@Red5oh I really hope that guys knows this. You should definitely know this before you have a 5.0 because it definitely isn’t or shouldn’t be someone’s first car ….
I fill mine when it gets down to half a tank gas cost too damn much!! See Automatics will actually burn more gas than the manual! They are also more dangerous if you think about it.. They’re awake and balls to the wall constantly. Manual isn’t until you put it in gear..I’m just wondering how many of those Mustang drivers that crash into people and curbs are automatics . A manual gives you more ways to slow down also. The automatic transmission floats the redline in many if not all the gears! Trust me you don’t need to rev these cars that high ! The power band is between like 2,000 RPMs and 4250 also when all the torque kicks in.. maximum horsepower at 6500 not at the redline. So no need to ever go past 7,000 really!
At some point I was getting 12mpg average. Then again I’m near FBO gen 2 5.0 manual and I have a habit of shifting after 2500rpms because that is when the exhaust note changes and sounds really mean.
You can drive it in S without paddle shifters. S will give you more throttle response and rev match downshift for you. But using paddles in S is not required
Interesting! I’ve been hearing that 21-22 Ecoboost don’t come with it unless you get I think premium or performance pack. What Trim level is yours? Idk why ford would remove them to begin with
Yes you can! Paddles are simply if you want to manual shifting. Putting it in S or sport mode will allow for quicker shifting and improved throttle response
Hey, wanted to know is it just my car that does this or is shifting to 3rd gear super harsh on the A10 transmission. My mustang shifts smooth in normal mode but when in Sport and manual shifting going in and coming out of 3rd gear is super Jumpy.
There’s an option to enable gauges. There’s 7 different you can choose from. 3 can be displayed. You have to go through the pony button and click on gauges
i feel when I use mu paddle shifter it burns the transmission i can smell it but maybe its in my head cause i just got my gt and i don't wanna fuck it up 😂😂
I NEED HELP. Okay so I’m in the market for a 2020 or newer mustang gt. I want the gt performance pack. With the Digital dash and it has to be a 10 speed. What mustang come with the 10 speed. I’ve found that it was introduced in 2018. So any mustang gt with an auto trans has the 10 speed? I’m so confused
This must be exciting! 2018 and up mustang gt with auto will be 10 speed. Just don’t get 2022 mustang gt yet as they are down on power and can’t be tuned yet as their ecu is locked. Good luck with search! Hit me up if you have any questions

@@knightrider3766 they have 450 hp instead of 460 hp and at that time you couldn’t tune them. You can carbon traps to get that extra 10 hp and they can also be tuned now so neither of the reasons are an issue anymore. Congrats on the new car btw!
For starters try to upshift around 4k rpm and downshift around 3k rpm. I have in depth tutorials on mustang paddle shifters. Once you get a hang of it you should be able to increase those points
The manual mode isn’t quite the same as the actual 6 speed. I’m sure it might come sorta close. That’s not the GT500 with the twin clutch! So you definitely won’t get the same feel.. Boring!!

I learned that on my ecoboost using both paddles to go back to auto mode
Thanks, one of the very few videos that shows properly how it works! :)

Anyway to rev without being in neutral while driving ? If someone shouts rev it do I always have to go to N ?
Neutral or park
Yes neutral to be able to rev it

@@Red5ohwhen I’m at a red light in sport mode and I manually shift into 3rd it’s a bit jerky, what rpm’s do I shift at from 2nd to 3rd
Never drop down into first coming to a stop until the car is completly stopped.
i tend to down shift from 2-1 around 10-15mph
I booked my first ecoboost mustang ever. 🙏 idk if it has paddle shifter or not though lol.
Congrats!! Ecoboost for 2024 model only has paddle shifter if equipped with performance pack unfortunately
Not true my 2021 ecoboost has paddle shifters
Great instruction.
Thank you!
I recently bought a 2019 mustang GT is it normal for hard shifts while in S mode
Yes
It should have firm shifts but not harsh shifts. There’s a difference. If it’s harsh where shift doesn’t feel right then you might need a transmission update
How to avoid stalling when shifting from second to first while coming to a stop? i got a 17 ecoboost with 6r80 transmission
You shouldn’t be stalling an automatic transmission from 2nd to 1st gear. What do you mean by stall really
@@mentana9344 mt82 is the manual 6r80 is 6 speed auto lol

@@harrystanlick5019 music to everyone’s ears in traffic. congratulations Harry!
Great and informative vid! Helped a lot
Thank you! Paddle shifters in the Mustang really add a lot of fun to the auto transmission.
Hay I get a 2021 5.0 now and I use to drive a 2018 Honda accord but ok the 5.0 the automatic gear goes up to fast at 30 miles I already in 8 or 9
Yeah unless you’re in sport mode the gears will climb up pretty fast
Hey so when you are in the sports mode with the paddles on will the car up shift if you get close to redline and you forget to use the paddles?
It will just cut the power off letting you know to shift. It won’t overrev the engine like you can in a manual and cause damage
what is the lowest engine speed you can shift to?
It would depend on the specific situation. Good thing is that if it’s too low the car shift so you won’t mess up anything
Let’s say I roll to a redlight I shift from 2rd gear to first gear is it bad for the engine?
It’s not bad for the engine per se but not required
@@Red5oh okay, im just worried cause I started it today and I like it😂
Let’s say I’m on first gear and I press on the gas without shifting will it correct itself and shift for me on its own ?
It will cut the gas at redline so you can shift then.
So 22 10spd gts cant be tuned yet ? 😭just traded my 21 6spd for a 10spd
Congrats on the new car! Unfortunately as of right now they cannot be tuned yet as far as I know. I am sure tuning companies will unlock the ecu soon
