I assume I'm downshifting too soon (RPMS too high) but I try to watch that and it still does it. So now I just shift up and tend to forget about downshifting manually and just let the car do it for me. I'm getting old.

its odd.
if I want to downshift without it going ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
I have to slow down untill 1600-1800 rpms BUT
if I am too slow it automatically downshifts and then it does a double downshift so from 3rd to 1st
which is very ROAR.
