After changing transmission oil there's a message ( transmission emergency run ).
They told me to change battery.????

Hi mate. When you are in manual mode, if you want to use the stick shift to change gears do you have to press the safety button every time? Thank you in advance and thank you for doing this detailed video. Much appreciated 😊

Weird you pull to up shift. In my 981 I push to up shift. Do you think driving in manual is faster from the start accelerate. I feel I get more torque in first gear to 6k rpm, then shift to 2nd. Auto does not hold first gear for long.

Just getting into Coupe style cars so sorry I know nothing, but if Temp Manual goes back to Auto at a certain RPM, whats the point of being in Temp Manual and not just staying in Auto? Can you stay in Auto? Is there any advantage to Manual?

Terrible video- how do you even get started in manual mode?
