Try to memorize your cars gear ratios. A good way to start is 1st - 10mph 2nd - 20mph 3rd 30mph and so forth. When shifting from say 3rd to 2nd, wait until your very close to or at 20mph for a smooth shift. But this will depend on the car.

You could potentially damage your car by "money shifting" which is where you drop from a high gear to a low gear very quickly. If you're in 6th and downshift to 2nd, that gear is going to be spinning so fast that it ends up destroying the gear, and that will end up running you a whole new tranny and it's an expensive fix. However, this is very rare. Good thing is that basically every single automatic with a manual mode has a throttle position sensor within the transmission circuit that determines the qualities of a gear change according to the load on the engine (where it gets the load from how open the throttle body is, and running some calculations). If the computer senses that the engine load is greater than is characteristic of a particular downshift (like there being a much higher engine load than should be allowed for a certain gear), then it will cockblock you from making the shift to protect the transmission. When you start using the system, sometimes you might downshift at inopportune times, and the engine will make a louder noise, but it's nothing to worry about unless you're redlining it beyond all recognition.

Try to memorize your cars gear ratios. A good way to start is 1st - 10mph 2nd - 20mph 3rd 30mph and so forth. When shifting from say 3rd to 2nd, wait until your very close to or at 20mph for a smooth shift. But this will depend on the car.

Manuel saves me a lot of speeding tickets. When I’m on gear 2 in NYC I stay on that gear to avoid going faster and getting a speeding ticket especially on Sundays. Vs automatic you can hit 37mph by mistake and get a ticket.

I was going 55mph but there was a car in front of me that slowed down to25mph in a few seconds, so I had a had time shifting down because all I could think about was to step on the brakes, as I was slowing down,the rpm went up to 6000,but keep in mind this is a small suv, and I am not a formula 1 driver , so I quickly pulled over and tried to down shift the gears,after that I put it in drive, does anyone know what I should’ve done instead
So then what are the + & - on the steering wheel for?🤔

I struggle with shifting up after coming to a stop. I try and let the gear run up to between 3-4k the shift up but when I do it jerks. Another thing I struggle with is downshifting to a stop . I have a 2022 Corolla and it shift for me if I let it run too low so sometimes I will be counting the shifts in my head when suddenly it skips and my rhythm is messed up.

If I understand correctly, if you have paddle shifters holding the downshift paddle will automatically downshift into the lowest possible gear and then you can do your hard acceleration. If you have the gear select shifter, holding the selector in the downshift position should downshift into the lowest possible gear and then you're free to go crazy

It's not really that hard on the car. Unless you're really redlining it, engines and transmissions actually quite enjoy being used like this. It's when youre lugging the engine all day that the transmission and engine is working harder to keep the car alive. His only real downside is that the automatic is probably better at finding economical shifts than him.

You could potentially damage your car by "money shifting" which is where you drop from a high gear to a low gear very quickly. If you're in 6th and downshift to 2nd, that gear is going to be spinning so fast that it ends up destroying the gear, and that will end up running you a whole new tranny and it's an expensive fix. However, this is very rare. Good thing is that basically every single automatic with a manual mode has a throttle position sensor within the transmission circuit that determines the qualities of a gear change according to the load on the engine (where it gets the load from how open the throttle body is, and running some calculations). If the computer senses that the engine load is greater than is characteristic of a particular downshift (like there being a much higher engine load than should be allowed for a certain gear), then it will cockblock you from making the shift to protect the transmission. When you start using the system, sometimes you might downshift at inopportune times, and the engine will make a louder noise, but it's nothing to worry about unless you're redlining it beyond all recognition.
