2nd button on the gear stick

Post by beermonsta » Wed Sep 29, 2010 5:09 pm

Ok I assume that the second or bottom button on the gear stick is an overdrive. When I press this buttoon a light on the dash says "hold" anyone tell me what this does and when to use it

It is the Hold button :lol: There's loads on here about it, as it's a common question from newbies - just do a search for hold AND button, or look back through the forum - it won't be long before you find it 8)

Press the hold button and it will change down one gear,good for slowing or going down hills,press it again to come out of hold.
