Re: skip shift

its a gas saver thing on M5/M6's.

IIRC it'll lock out 3rd gear at low rpms and you'll have to shift to 4th or 5th.

Re: skip shift

For some reason I thought it was only on M6s. I never saw it...

Re: skip shift

It does nothing on 5-speeds...


On 6-speeds, it locks you out of 2nd, if you are at higher rpms but slow, and gets you to shift to 4th gear. When it does this, it lights up, so you are not too surprised.
