oh well, just have to select thru gears when pounding. does the SRi auto have that annoying disengage when the car has come to a complete stop. my missus's astra has that and it annoys the freak out of me!

yeah it dropps into neutral and it makes abit of a jerk when its in and out of neutral and drive. its not so bad when ur the driver but i guess when ur a passanger its more noticable.
