November 19th, 2008 09:18 PM #827how exactly do you drive with the paddle shifters? same ba to sa tiptronic na semi-manual mode?
as in anytime pwd ka magdownshift and upshift even if ur not in the correct speed/rpm range? is it smart enough to detect in case ur downshifting by mistake?

by switching to S mode, you have more control of the paddle shifters. though you can still do the paddles in D mode.
the paddle shift system is wise enough to detect if you are going to blow up the engine or make the engine work hard. in a specific speed, you can only upshift/downshift only in a range best suited for the engine. so let's say you are cruising at 60kmh and you are 5th gear on manual (paddle shifters in S mode), then you tried to downshift to 4th... engine will rev up high dito and when you immediately try to go down to 3rd gear, the system will not allow you to since you are going to blow up the engine anyway. this may not be the accurate way to illustrate it but this is close enough para makita how wise the system works. just the same, if you are going around 30kmh and on 3rd, you have to reach certain RPMs(around 1500+ ata) for the system to allow you to shift to 4th. and also if you are travelling at 60kmh on 5th and for some reason you forgot to press on the accelerator and downshift, the system will automatically downshift for you...
