7AT / Sport / Touring. If I use the paddle shifters, it only holds it for like 8 seconds before going back to Auto. Do I need use the lever & swap modes to get it to hold the gear? I've just never jacked with it... Using the paddle shifters seems pretty worthless since it won't hold the gear.

Slide the shifter left. You will have uninterrupted control.

Thanks...that's what I need...uninterrupted control.

I'd just never played with it except for the paddles. Hold them until it goes to manual, but then you've got to keep shifting to keep it in manual.
