Drive Range, Manual Second (from Drive, Manual Third) (W/o Electronic Range Select Mode): Notes

A manual 3-2 downshift is initiated by moving the gear selector lever to the Manual Second (2) position. However, the transmission will not downshift into Second gear until vehicle speed is below approximately 99 km/h (62 mph). At higher vehicle speeds the PCM will keep the 2-3 shift solenoid energized (On) and the transmission will operate in Manual Second - Third Gear as a safety precaution. In Manual Second the transmission is hydraulically prevented from upshifting into Fourth gear under any conditions. Also, the coast clutch remains applied as in Manual Third, and the clutch provides engine compression braking in the Third and the Second gears. The transmission upshifts and downshifts between First and Second gears as in Overdrive gear.
