Default I passed 1000 miles finally!!!! I have a question

The first time I mashed the pedal down, I noticed it meets some resistance towards the floor(and not the floor itself LOL ) then it went all the way down. Is that normal?

Default My 2.7 T does that also...

I believe it is the "kick down" mode switch we'rer feeling. I thought it a little strange the first time I felt it.

I just went past the 1000 mile mark also, and am having a blast.

Enjoy!

Whats the kick down mode do? I don't have my manual with me. Is that like the old days when the secondaries kicked in??

Default

It kicks the transmission down to the lowest possible gear (within certain parameters).
