My fiesta (at) shifts into 6th at just over 40 MPH and 1500 RPM. It will hold 6th better when temps are warm vs cold. I've just learned to anticipate that point and try to stay in 6th as much as practical. If I don't I have to P&G to keep my MPG up. Been filling at different stations lately, last tank just over 48 MPG. MPG over several previous tanks shows one at 45, the next about 48, I think it is fill discrepancies from not using the same pump at the same station, but it all averages out over time.
It will not hold any gear but first below 1500, shifts down to the next lower gear as you slow down. I can even feel it downshifting when I have it in "neutral" which I think is not neutral at all just clutch released.
regards
Mech
