way to ruin ur car buddy. stepping on the gas and brakes? wow.. thats great to do to ur car.. if u really want put it in neutral.. rev and just throw it into drive and thatll work better.. and what do u mean u dont hear rattling or knocking so it prob isnt bad.. ofcourse ur not gonna hear it even if ur killing ur car. learn to drive before u ruin a nice car..Hussain wrote:if you're in manual mode and your RPMs get to redline or near redline (i think i a little before redline) the car will automatically shift it into the next gear for you. from a stop to 80? what i do when i race my friend is step on the brake and then give it gas so the RPMs go to like 2500 and then take your foot off the brake and floor the gas pedal all the way and it will hit redline pretty quick and CVT never shifts so it will just stay there.... what i do when i want to pass is put it in manual mode to where the RPMs are at like 4000 and floor the gas pedal, it moves pretty quick. also something else i've done that i'm not sure is good for the car or not (i don't think it would hurt the car since i hear no knocks or anything and it goes smooth) is put it in manual to about 4000 RPMS and then floor the gas pedal and well my foot is all the way on the gas pedal, hit it back in "D" (CVT), and it will just go from 4000 RPM to redline and just stay at redline. if you do it past 4500 RPM, it will shift a gear when putting is back into "D" and sorta defeats the purpose of doing it. so to pass you could just put it in manual mode to about 4000 RPM and when it gets close to redline it will shift on its own.

THAT'S EVEN WORSE!!! anyone who knows anything about automatic will tell you NEVER rev it in neutral and then put it in drive! 1 of my friend's tried that in a benz and messed it up and one of my brother's did it in a jeep and the drive shaft fell off! that is the stupidest thing you could ever do with an automatic. stepping on the brakes and giving it a little gas isn't the best thing but if anything happens, it'll just be your brake pads getting worn out a little faster then usual. it gets your RPMs up a little higher from the launch so you take off quicker (like stick shift). i don't know why anyone would do that on a daily bases.... that's why i said that's what i did when i raced my friend! if you take it to the track or somethin, you want to get the best possible time and it wont screw up your car.... the part about putting it back into "D", i said i've only done that a couple times and i'm not sure if it's the best thing to do. i'm no expert but isn't triptonic and CVT's manual mode made to be put back in "D" we'll the car is moving (you don't stop and put it back in "D" and then go) so how is that any different? it's just at a slightly higher RPM then doing it normally. does anyone know like for sure that will mess up your car (not thinks it might, but KNOWS it will)?Shift_Perfection wrote:

DO NOT do that. I repeat DO NOT do that. That will wreck your transmission.Shift_Perfection wrote:.. if u really want put it in neutral.. rev and just throw it into drive and thatll work better....

i alredy tried that and nothing happens, it wont engage in drive until RPMS drop back to 750-1200 RPM.Shift_Perfection wrote:

sorry, some of us like to drink coffee, smoke, talk on our cell phones, and eat cheerios while driving. SO much easier with that fake cvt garbage.Shift_Perfection wrote:too bad i have a 6mt but ok.. i dont need to worry about fake manual tranny cvt garbage.
WOW sounds like the CVT makes you very unhealthy, remind me to stay away.mikemart wrote:

Sry, but I think all of us would like to ask you to kindly not drive anywhere near us, while you so easily drink coffee, smoke, talk on your cell phone, and eat your cheerios, and drive your CVTmikemart wrote:

Haha. If you don't know what you're talking about, it's best not to talk at all. Assume less, learn more.Shift_Perfection wrote:alrite. i made a mistake sry guys. no need to get so offended.. i figured it was the same as mt since u rev a bit then let off the clutch for a good take off.. my falut relax..
the manual would beat the cvt hands down.TheBourneAltimatum wrote:
And BTW i noticed that it is alot quicker if you use manual mode. but in theory isnt the regular mode suposed to be faster???!! i think someone should race another car with cvt. one guy does manual mode and another does regular. and i also want to see a 6mt race a cvt
