How to use OverDrive button efficiently

Post by **|Charlie|** » Thu Sep 16, 2010 4:26 pm

Hi all,

I just got a 240sx Auto. I have a quick question..
How shall I use the OverDrive button efficiently? Only when I go on freeway at around 60mph? Or shall I leave it on all the time?

Please advise. Thanks!

I just leave mine on all the time. I think if you were driving in the mountains you might turn it off but otherwise enjoy the 28 MPG!

It doesn't do any bad to the car even if you go slow locally?

Also, you get 28MPG? I think mine can only do 24 max :p So jealous!

Nope, just leave it on. You want to be in highest gear because it saves you the most gas

Only time to take it off is in stop and go traffic at 35mph or less. It would keep it from changing gears too much.
