The auto's do an auto downshift when the brake is applied and you are slowing down. Works great for holding it back on a hill while decending. It is a similar reason you can not feel the transmission in 4th until the engine reaches operating temperature.

Quit listening to rumors..... Yaris has a good transmission. Learn to worry about important things like California falling into the ocean, black helicopters and UFO's landing in the parks at night! Just kidding about the UFO's........
