Breaking while going down hill.
When i was comming back home from pismo beach in ca... i noticed my car will downshift while breaking on going downhill and my rpm will shoot up to 4k.... is that normal??? i just switch it to sport mod then back to normal....any advice will be appreciated..

In sport mode the engine braking (downshifting) is more aggressive. Not only will it downshift going down hill, it will hold the gear even if you take your foot off the brake. Great feature!

Yes, I had a little fun with this. It was a little strange at first when I noticed the rough downshifting, but I guess that is the engineers way of making it feel sportier.
