I have wondered about a paragraph in my owners manual for years now.
The 1993 Honda Civic manual states on page 87 :
"
First - To shift from Second to First, press the release button on the side of the shift lever. With the lever in this position, the transmission locks in First gear. By upshifting through 1,2,D3 and D4, you can operate this transmission much like a manual transmission without a clutch pedal."
So this means that I can actually shift this thing like a manual while in motion ...er... right ?
I shift into neutral all the time and coast with the engine still running.
I'm just to chicken to try out the other gears.
Do you think that there wold be a benefit to manually shifting ?
...Or am I just not understanding something.
