    Sport / Corsa w Auto Mode BRUTAL DOWNSHIFTS?!

    Sport / Corsa w Auto Mode BRUTAL DOWNSHIFTS?!
    Hey everyone..

    So I have been learning all I can on the H & while driving it I noticed if you drive it in Auto mode while in sport / corsa (which no one does probably LOL) the car knows the exact rite times to down shift & it sounds AMAZING!!

    But it's more than that. I have tried to study & watch the counter for when it car forces the down shifts & such & tried to mimic them myself in manual mode & it sounds good but not as brutal as in auto mode...why is this? In auto mode does the car force out some kind of extra power when downshifting? Im just not understanding why my downshifts don't sound as brutal in manual mode when I am down shifting at the same times & revs as it is when it's in auto mode.

    Anyone else noticed this? Put it in sport mode AUTO & watch how brutal it down shifts when your coming to a stop or a light or anything. Its crazy.

    Hi Hitz101,

    Yes the shifts are brutal in Sport mode Auto (there is no Auto for Corsa). Try downshifting at the moment of braking. Not before you brake.

    Also try holding down the downshift paddle, that will force a shift to the lowest gear possible at that RPM vs. just down one gear. That will DEFINITELY give you a jolt.
