huh? no, even on manual it is fine to downshift & rev match into 1st...it is something you should learn if you're serious into driving stick...


....but with this being the auto it should be a piece of cake...I was always only in M mode when I had my auto FRS and I would always engine brake, downshift & hit limiter back down into 1st at every stop light with no problems...


as for OP I stopped at the check engine light. Clearly something is wrong with your car and you're asking about other issues? Do you even know what code is coming up?
