I always drive in "drive." I do not use the manual setting. I recently had a 1400 road trip and the day after I returned and the odometer hit 10,000, the care felt funny while driving, like the engine was revving and I could really feel the car shifting as my speed increased. The speedometer also took a long time to come down when I slowed and at one point said 5 mph when I was completely stopped. I have never driven the car in "manual" (sorry guys, chick here, it's probably wasted on me) but I know for a fact that when I first bought the car 8 months ago you could hit the paddles with the car in drive and nothing happened. Now, when you hit the paddles in drive, the manual gears show up on the dash. The service guy at the dealer thinks I'm wrong about everything. I know something's not right. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
