Sometimes too much technology scares me and I like to pick the gear i want depending on what i'm going to do through the turn. I went with the 6M, but that's the tradionalist in me. Hell it took me 2 years to accept touch tone! jk

DCT allows you to pick your gear as well. No difference in that department.

Not to be disrespectful and I dont see why she would... But do you think she might have just said this to cover a driving mistake that occurred?

I also had my rear end come around after a good car wash and some tire dressing.

It send my wife to the curb because she drives through a canyon on her way to work. I am looking at the invoice on the receipt and it seems they changed the rear diff fluid.. Could the dealer messed something up doing that so the diff is locking up for no reason now? Anyone with similar experience? I am suppose to drop the car off tomorrow at the dealer for them to look at. But most likely they will just say they cannot replicate the problem.
