when you make turns, rev match helps!

So like when ur going 45mph and ur going make a right turn... going from 5th gear to 2nd gear makes it easier?

If I am correct, syn rev button is right next to emergency button?
Do you always have syn rev turned on?

sojirovskensi 12-16-2010 01:50 AM

always turned off!
I prefer no auto-controlled manual

JayYoon 12-16-2010 01:54 AM

I have seen VDC activate for me shifting from 1st -> 2nd gear when doing hard acceleration a couple times. That is why I turn it off if I am doing full-out acceleration.

I use it all the time when engine braking for red lights or traffic, but when I'm driving my other car I have to remind myself to rev match the old fashioned way (right foot) sometimes :)

Mine is always turned on.

As for sync rev I almost never use it. I probably would if I was in a mountain-type of road where I am going down hill and uphill with a lot of turns but in general not doing the throttle blip for downshifting urself kind of takes the fun out of driving for me (my dad liked this feature though).

Also I was kind of annoyed when down shifting when going to a stop light a lot of times the thing would rev like I was going into second (or first) when a lot of times I don't and I am going just to neutral and breaking so it was doing unnecessary throttle blips. I think it was just the engine sound which made me feel un-easy when that happened (throttle blip when I didn't want it) is another reason I always drive with it off.

Mine is on all the time not that I can't heel and toe though. Just a convenience thing. Its funny cause my right foot is positioned on the brake pedal for heel and toe yet I just let the car blip.
