- In this video, I show you how to drive an automatic car like a manual car. If you want to shift gears in your automatic car, I show you exactly how to do it. In addition, I give you a little bonus tip that will really make it look and sound like you are driving a standard car. It might be common sense, but you obviously need the ability to shift gears in your automatic transmission to drive it like a manual.

Never thought I’d see Saul Goodman teaching us how to drive in manual mode in an automatic.
it’s literally the same bro😭

No way, best comment, better call Saul season 6 so good
3:30 holy hell that was perfect are you part car

He said “damn mami”
He speaks the tru tru.

Yes
3:30 CEO of car noises
You're god damn right.
It sounds fucking identical
Ur telling me he gets loader??
Homie out here whippin lowkey😂
Why do you sound like you’d sell me something.
I'm here to learn this because my son just came home and told me about it after driving my wife's car I said whoa! I didn't know that feature. I have to practice it now. Seems fun. I haven't driven manual for years. This is the closest thing.
Those noises were PERFECT man!!!! You sounded just like a standard transmission
The main thing about manual car is it has a clutch which makes a big difference
Literally have the same dashboard style and have been wanting to drive manual. Learned a bit from my friend and I'm actually not too bad. My upshift is great but my downshift scared me. Turns out I was pretty much doing it correctly haha. Great tips!
If you’re downshifting at the right speed, there’s should be little to no engine rev. Finding that sweet spot for your specific car takes time. With enough time you’ll be able to downshift without a second though. Good luck mate
I have a 2017 Impala, and I wondered what the "M" on my shifter meant. I know how to drive stick, but this is all new to me. I looked everywhere on how use this feature but no results. So, thanks on showing me how, even if its on a Mazda, I assume its all the same. Thanks, man. Late.
Dat car sound was on point😂
I was out driving my car 1 night and was thinking I need to try to drive this car like a manual...so I Google how to drive a automatic like a manual " and your video was the one I got...and I have to say sir...u taught me in the first 2 mins of your video and its only like 4 min long!!! So thanks for posting this...very helpful 👌 ☺
Man!you r so real,i love the enthusiasm🤝🤝🤝
The best part is you mentioned releasing the throttle while changing gears! That's really important for the engine and the gearbox! Sound is secondary! Bt thanks for the video.
Thanks I havent had my mazda too long and i just discovered this. Ive really been wanting to try it out but i was hesitant because I dont want to screw up my car
Same 😭
What Mazda did you get
I'm definitely going to try it out, since it seems a lot easier than actually driving a manual car. I'm an automatic car driver myself, but since it doesn't have a clutch, definitely makes the job a bit easier.
Me too I raced this guy in normal automatic while he use auto manual because I didn’t mess my car up
You won't mess it up. Like the guy said, its not the worse you could you. You just have to get a feeling for it and practice with the sounds. Its easy once you get the hang of it
Thanks for the vid it really helped make it much more fun to drive my car. 1,000th like btw :)
Very simple, very helpful, thanks a lot bro.
Duude that sound was awesome 😂
excellent explanation thanks i have been looking for these information about how to drive a manual in automatic Veucule
2:56 - take your foot off the gas while shifting
My chevy sonic has this. Kinda crazy and fun
3:29 fart can civic
Very helpful video👍👍
This was the best car tutorial video , you made sure you explained every detail to your viewers while visually showing us ! Dope video bro
So this like driving an r35 without paddle shifters am i right?
I don’t understand why a lot of people hate on automatic transmissions when a good few of them have manual modes. The only difference between this and an actual manual transmission is that you don’t have the need for a clutch pedal to disengage the engine from the drivetrain.
Mainly the lack of a smooth drive. Also repair cost. Easier to work on a manual
manual cars have clutches and shift better
@@00.50goldeneyeevery automatic i’ve been in is smoother than a manual lol
they dont shift better, automatics have the fastest shift bc its a computer
I can note that when you downshift you don´t do any match revs, is that ok for the gear box once there is a significant increase in revs (when driving fast)?
It’s engine breaking
Perfect vid much help
Oh my god finally I got that how to shift the gears ⚙️ in automatic car
This man makes the best car noises
I been starting to drive in Manual mode more after watching this video
Hello, I have two questions for you? 1. Is it going to damage the gear box if i continuously drive in manual mode in long run? 2. My car automatically downshifts the gear and i hardly downshift the gear. Is it ok? please reply
So I let it rev up and then switch? And great tip for the letting up on the gas when shifting
Best part: no need for a clutch like on an actual manual car :) So for people who feel like driving manual in an automatic, an automatic transmission car that has the feature gives you the best of both worlds, without the clutch of course :D
Question I have a 2004 Nissan Sentra and it only has gear 1 and gear 2 is it ok for me to drive manual
Thanks bro 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Can you switch between automatic and manuel whenever you want even when driving?
Do you have to let go the gas paddle or put the breaks to up shift or just drive it normal and up shift it cause I whant to use the manual mode in my mazda6 automatic
In your case let go of the gas peddle and shift, in a manual only transmission you have to release the gas peddle and press the clutch to shift.
Vw passat 1.8 turbo automatic trans with manual opinion 👌🏽im about to go crazy 🤪😜😤thks bro
My Benz C230 goes straight into 4th. I have to head it to the left four times to bring it into first. I was wondering why they did it that way maybe because if you’re going like 50 miles an hour and hit it to the left’s mission by going straight into 1st gear at 60mph lol
ok my car has that if I go on the highway and I use the manual at how many revolutions do I have to change?
Is there a time/scenario when switiching to this mode is actually practical?
Thanks
When downshifting to create more create more torque do you keep your foot on the gas while downshifting or let go of the gas while downshifting?
I’ve heard you don’t need to let go of thr gas while shifting and I do both, however letting go makes my car jerk forward. While shifting down you should hit the brakes or else your rpm will sky rocket. I say try both and practice it, normally you want to up gears 2,500-3000 rpm and downshift takes a bit more practice
I have a 2009 Volvo C30 which has a similar set up as this video. It would have been helpful to have the camera close up showing gear selection, rpms, and speed
I have driven a manual car most of my life, now I am driving an automatic with the automatic to manual feature. So my question is, is it safe to start in automatic and then switch to manual while driving and switch back to automatic drive (I tend to miss driving a manual sometimes and need this)?
Yes I do it all the time
@@RussellTheTrader97 thank you!
In a automatic you cant screw things up.. even in the "manual" mode.. you just tell your computer what gear you wanna be in, if the computer isnt happy with it, it sais "scew your command" and shifts itself again..
Well what rpm should u shift on
I have a question some friends of mine said that using the automatic transmission like a manual will be bad or for the transmission and I’m scared of using it what do you guys think or is it true or what can I do so it never go bad
Change the transmission oil more often or what?
So I have a Mazda that has this feature, and I have to ask - is there any real advantage to this or is it just a driving preference? At what point would it make sense to use the manual transmission on an automatic car? Can I preserve the longevity of the transmission by going manual in certain situations?
I've never driven manual, but I'd like to try this feature. Seems like its just something you would do for fun, but are there any other advantages?
Helps with gas consumption and is more fun
😂 helps with gas consumption
It’s highly beneficial if you’re going up or down hills. One of the main reason to use it is to utilize “engine braking” to ensure your brakes don’t overheat especially when you’re descending a mountain or going through bendy roads. Using brakes on every single corner will make it wear faster and it might overheat to the point it may cause brake failure. You can shift down to 3rd or 2nd and let go of the throttle when you go through corners, it will slow down the car without using the brakes. Your car will make some interesting noises but don’t worry, that’s just it keeping itself within the high revs. It doesn’t damage your transmission nor your engine; contrary to popular beliefs. :)
Meor Hariz thanks for this info!! i like checking out the mazdas around my area for sale and they all have this feature. I can’t trust myself to stick shifting. Especially on a highway LOL
Well don’t listen to the guy who made this vid 😂😂 he has no idea how one of these works
Thanks Sir
Is there a certain time you shift? Or do you just shift when the car speeds up
Gotta listen by ear or look at the rpms id say around 3500-4000 rpm
My 2011 Kia sorento has this feature. I wanna learn to use it but how do you know when to shift gears? Do I do it at a certain speed or wait for a sound?
Once the rpm reaches around 6000 is a good time to shift up
@@Mark-gf7ps that’s way too high unless you’re trying to race
@@Mark-gf7ps😅
How do I know when to downshift? Like at what speed
Can u just drive a tiptronic car in just drive mode without having to shift gears ?
Will I blow my transmission doing this if I am not careful?
What about driving on the highway? When do I shift ?
So do you have to let go of the gas to up or downshift or is that just to pretend like ur driving stick
So...just to clarify you can still leave foot on gas while shifting gears? I know you said it feels more like manual when you take your foot off gas, but I don't want mess something up lol
oh my god i’m a big fan saul goodman “better call saul!”
can I shift the gear from D to plus and minus during the car moving?
Yes. It is safe
Thanks Gary Vee!
Very nice video! Hard to find things on this its interesting manual mode isnt described very well in my toyota corolla SE owners manual but ut really feels like a manual and I like that especially if Im driving around town like 25mph and or hitting the highway off a yield you really fly right in to traffic since you can control the power and acceleration at the perfect rpm I have had this on a ford but it was not as sporty and "manual like" like the toyotas its really cool I recommend ppl to check it out and having the paddles are great too I have both but the paddles are nice for highway and fast speeds aswell as its just safer you have 2 hands on the wheel
😂 glad we have the same car to makes it easier
I just bought an 2002 Acura TL Type S with 190, 000 miles an wanted to know how to do that shift .
Car sounds 10/10
So ur able to keep your foot on the gas while shifting gears since you don’t get a clutch. So I don’t have to worry about letting go of the gas
yes
Karina thank you
Do you have to break when you are downshifting
Thanks bruv, I've been driving my automatic car for two years and have been scared of using the manual gear lol.
3:16 does this make the make the car sing? like equipped with an exhaust and when you shift does the car make that distinct noise where the gear changes like in an actual manual ?
4 months late but yes, when you downshift with an aftermarket exhaust the car will give that high RPM noise. On stock exhaust, your engine will do most of the high RPM noise though. I love the sound my car makes when I pull it to 2nd gear when I’m about to overtake someone. High revs, loud vroom, wide smile.
@@MeorHariz nice im sure its a thrill
so do you wait to upshift till it gets to around 4000rpms?
You know how their are dog whisperers.... yes... hes a car whisperer 💯🤙🔥🔥🔥
This can't be safe for an Auto transmission though to keep down shifting can it? Wouldn't it be better to switch to drive while stopping? Then back to manual
That’s what I did the first time I tried auto manual I panicked because the rpms were going up like crazy while I was downshifting 😳
It’s fine dude I do it all the time
But do the manual shift have a perfect shift time like the manual cars
So is there any benefits to this or is it just for fun?
When do you switch gears tho?
You got us primoooo
I have a 2013 fiat 500 and it’s a Automatic and it has the plus and minus can I just drive it normal or do I have to drive it like a manual
You can drive it normally like any other automatic. The plus/minus is just for anyone who wants to shift their car manually.
Deiondré thank you
If driving automic as manual too often, does it impact/damage the car? Thanks.
No
Wait you’re not supposed to let off the gas when you upshift on a dct?? 😅😂 that’s what I’ve been doing haha
No it jerks the car if you do at least mine
absolutely nobody:
Dudes with Hondas at 3 am: 3:30
Do we have to release the accelerator while shifting from D to M ? Second. Going at 80km/hr in D if I shift to M will it go to M1 or M5? Finally is it allowed to shift from D to M while driving? Really basic questions, sorry for that.
I'm wondering the same thing.....thanks for asking the question.
I'd check the actual car manual. The option to manually shift gears, in most cars, isn't so you can drive like a manual; it's really there when you want to limit the gear for some reason. Snow, towing, hills, hard corners, etc. Not really intended to mimic a manual car in most cases. Some sports/muscle cars have paddle shifters for that reason but most cars have it for more specific purposes
3:30 in fact he make vr38 sound wit his mouth 😂
Having to settle for an automatic sucked a Lil until I learned this.
Automatics are a bit sloppy on the road. The braking distance is too abrupt and jerky, and I notice with automatics I get more irritated with other drivers more frequently. I feel manual transmission gives a smoother drive overall, and better braking distance that feels more transitional into idle (when you need to use your brakes to stop), and back into motion. Also they are better on gas mileage. I personally don't have a manual transmission on my current car, though but drive it like a manual.
what do you mean when you say the braking distance is jerky? like are you braking a little late, is the brake very sensitive, is all of the above happening when your in manual mode in your automatic transmission?
i think you just can’t drive bc i have no problem 😭
I agree, auto shifts faster so it a less smooth experience, driving in manual mode is so much smoother, I don't feel the need to break so much and it's so satisfying to upshift
Could you switch from manual mode back to automatic while cruising at 45mph or do you have to be at a stop to change modes?
Thanks for the informative video!
yes the only thing it does is allow the automatic shifting to kick in so I don't think it is necessary to come to a complete stop
yeah some cars the D = overdrive when you are in manual so it the highest gear
Can we shift from auto to manaual or manual to auto while car is in running state...
Yes you definitely can, that's what it's made for! :)
going up hill or overtaking do you shift to - or +
- to downshift for more torque
Omg thanks I honestly didn’t even know what was going on when I put that knob to the left
What is the correct RPM to shift the gear in an AMT car???
1500-2000
My shitty automatic car is straight gear. Can't wait to get the manual transmission 350z
can you keep your foot on the gas pedal when you shift?
Yes, it’s not really what your supposed to do but it doesn’t really hurt your car that much since it’s automated manual and not actual manual
How do we get out of Manuel tho?
Do u let off the gas pedal everytime when u shift up or down?
tsv alphakoll that's also my question
3:12 is the start of the answer
No
When you turned. Or show off
7 months late but no, you do not need to let off the gas. It’s somewhat like “powershifting” on a manual where you keep your accelerator on while kicking the clutch and shifting. You can let off the gas for more realism but it’s faster if you keep feeding the gas while shifting up. Also, due to most automatic cars are “electronic” based; you should practice shifting at about 500RPM before the redline / rev limiter for that gear. (I do track days on an automatic car)
On turbo cars however, letting go of the gas before shifting is highly beneficial as you let the turbo kick in after shifting up.
3.16 You didn’t have an exhaust so we couldn’t hear it lol. With an exhaust, If you let off the gas you can clearly hear the pause in exhaust tone similar to the real manual transmission.
“Hey everybodeeee”
I am about 60 years old and never learned how to drive. I never wanted to drive and I am taking occasional lessons; 2 so far, I still don't like being in cars. Should I quit all together or keep trying?
Time Traveler do it! It’s never too late you’ll get used to it!
Go for it
Time Traveler gotta stop being a pussy at some point
go as fast as you can in any can on any back road and then see if u wanna drive gramps
Depends if you like it tbh. If youre always nervous in the car and are happy not using it then probably better not to.
But then again it's very liberating to drive yourself where you need to go, and your options are limited when you cannot. My dad went his whole life without driving. But I couldn't imagine not having that skill.
Just don't be a doofus. Obey road rules, be aware of other drivers, and check your mirrors.
Do you have to take foot off the gas like you would a real manual car?
No. Automatics shift by applying clutches to certain gear carriers. Taking your foot off the gas only adds to the asthetic of driving manual.
Question can you shift to two while not moving?
Yes, it will be good for icy road conditions and if you startrd at the bottom of a hill. You get more control.
