Granted, it's a good auto, but it's still a slushbox. manual mode will save you no gas, and possibly use more since you'll most likely be in a lower gear than the ECU would be if left alone. It won't let you mess it up by shifting at the wrong time.
Thanks that helps a lot, But I don't understand one thing. What's a dual clutch then?
