I realized when i almost want to stop at traffic light, maybe at d speed 10-15 km/h ( not uphill ) the gearbox DOWN SHIFT to 1st gear and very obvious u can feel that d car slow down or stop.

The feel almost like Citroen Picasso.
Auto down shift if i m not wrong.

yup..experience that sometimes...but isnt it natural for auto g/box to down-shift itself when you slow down ? correct me if i'm wrong though...

If u didnt push back the side mirror button to centre, ur side mirror wont retract when u look the door with remote.


Doesn't work for mine. Still retracts as usual...

Scenario, lets say, you parked your car with a pillar close to your driver side door, and if you open the door, the side mirrors will touch the pillar.
So, we manually retract the mirrors before we open the door. Then, we lock the car, but the mirrors are already retracted anyway.
When we come back and open the lock, the car knows that the last memory was that your mirrors are retracted before you lock the doors and the mirrors won't open up when you unlock the doors and won't touch the pillar when you open the doors to get in the car.... good huh??
Its not what you have...... its how you use it!!

if your lights are set to auto then it will of by itself.
if its manual, the car will beep to inform that you did not off your lights.
