how do you redline in 1st then shift in an auto?
All recent automatic transmissions are electronically controlled. When they hit redline, they will shift.

I had a Chrysler 300M with the Autostick. You could put it in 1 and when it hit 6000rpm it would shift into 2.

All I know is that I briefly saw the tach sweep over to the big red area and felt the shift!

Thx,

Mike

The Stang will do this? I had a BMW with the Steptronic that did, but thought that was a built in feature. What happens when you redline in all the other gears, will it shift as well?

Very interesting. I just thought the limiter kicked in and you just slow down and manually shift to the next gear. I'm still not sure but will try it my self.
