Turbobrick Neutral Newbie November 4, 2002 Share November 4, 2002 I played with the Tiptronic in the Mit Chariot that was rented to me when my brick was in the workshop for butt repairs. What can I say, the tip shifts are like rubber band, not quick nor smooth. I'd rather leave it in auto "D" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewkb Neutral Newbie November 4, 2002 Author Share November 4, 2002 Reason why I asked, coz in the Stream, I find the autogear like to stay in a gear for too long ... good in terms of maintaining within the powerband, but bad if I want to simply cruise ... In fact, when I switch to Tip, the gearshift seems faster ! So, gathering more feedback... BTW, tried the Hyundai H-matic and the tip is really like rubberband ! Probably inherited from Mitubishi Invecs III rite ? Thus, the same characteristics. Oh BTW, I got a friend who drove the pre-facelife BMW 318 and NEVER use the tip before, until days before he sold the car, I got a ride in his car, and he used it, to feel shiok before selling it ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
