Haha, that wasn't towards you.

Shifting the Auto into a lower gear for more passing power is perfectly fine as long as you don't force the tranny to make up for big differences in speed. ie... asking the thing to drop to 2nd while you are still at 100kph.

...but I think the computer still has a dummy guard against someone who wants to drop gears into drastically lower gears. And to this I would ask if anyone wants to be the one with enough courage and/or large pocket book to try.
