Manual mode
 
How many of you drive the 7sp auto in manual mode all the time or most of the time and have you had any problems with the auto in doing this. How is the torque converter holding up to this usage?

Thanks

I drive manual mode about 70% of the time. torque convertor still holding on.

The 7 speed auto is awesome. I use it very infrequently thought. Those of you that do, do you worry about increased oil temps?

I feel that I would need an engine and transmission oil cooler to be safe.

yes you go push and pull that phallic object you shift with.

kenchan 01-04-2011 04:36 PM

hey at least the flipper is stationary on your cars.... on my other Honda, the stupid thing spins with the steering wheel for the ultimate fun in shifting while turning.

so i just floor the pos since it shifts up at redline. :D

LuckyJinx 01-04-2011 04:39 PM

If u redline it doesn't it automatically change gears? Cause I did it with my bro's es350.

Vegitto-kun 01-04-2011 04:42 PM

nah if you redline it it just shut down the throttle.

too low in revs it downshift but redlining just kill it.

which is odd since I remember the GT-R upshifting at redline
