Pro5 Owners with the Sport Shift Auto...
I have this option, and well I'm getting a little paranoid about it. If I just leave it be at automatic its fine, no sudden jolts/shaking or what ever when it automatically shifts up and down. Now when I take it to the "manual-mode" I can shift up with out jolts, took some practice (1-2 months of driving it that way), but I'm still having problems shifting down, I get sudden jolts/shaking when I shift it down manually. Now if I let it automatically shift down its fine, and very smooth. I've tried shifting down as what the manual sais to do but eithier the computer will shift down automatically or I do it to quickly and I get a jolt. It only jolts when I mess up shifting down. Lately I'm on the 4th gear and when I need to stop I shift down and I find myself on 2nd gear instead of 3rd and I get that jolt/shaking thing. The jolts/shaking isn't horrible, I think I'm the only one that feels it (passengers don't seem to notice, but I do).
Any suggestions would be helpful. I drive the car on the "manual-mode" mostly because I like being in control when accelerating, its just when I manually shift down that scares me:( Maybe I should just let the computer shift down for me when I slow:) and need to take the corners.
Its been more then 3 months now since I've had this car, and well I still haven't mastered shifting down with it:(
