How to properly use PADDLE SHIFTERS in your S550 MUSTANG!

[@jaybengston1164]

The paddle shifters actually do work with the shifter in drive. It will shift to the next gear but it doesn't hold it like in "S". After a few seconds it reverts to fully automatic. It can be useful for a quick downshift to pass when you're not in Sport + mode.

Interesting

Thank you. Grabber blue metallic is my favorite

Like usual I'll watch this when I get off work. But you must be knowing bc I was literally for the first time trying this on my way to work today lol. Looking forward to seeing this later!! 😂

[@triggersociety12]

I appreciate u brother!

[@GutterCatMedia]

Before I continue the rest of the video, I understand to each their own. I found it comical when mentioned the paddle shifters are ricey but they actually have a positive function. Also, when you mention to shift while turning bc of the twisting... technically you're not supposed to do that. So far I'm just seeing a review how you feel about the mustang paddle shifting vs how to properly use the paddle shifters. Personally I agree about the paddle shifters bc they seem different (especially for you coming from a gt500). I like the autos that let you shift with the boot. I'm sure you and like many other car enthusiasts will prefer a manual. You can't beat that control going on a nice windy road, unless that's just me. 👍

[@triggersociety12]

I appreciate your comment. When u need to shift, taking a turn out of a stop light, ya sometimes u have too. Also, I did a review/opinion and how too. A little of everything. Not a big fan of them. Fun every once and awhile

[@m6soncarter]

Only time I’ve used my paddle shifters was on accident lol

[@robertlandrum8598]

In track mode and the shifter in S it will not shift! Mine just buried the tach!! Learned a lesson that day!!

Thank you! Means alot!

[@In_Rem]

my 21 Mach 1 will paddle shift in either D or S and once you paddle shift, you must paddle shift unless you do not paddle shift for 10 seconds at which time the paddle shift times out and the auto shift returns

[@thedon8176]

i just subscribed. Aug 2024, Can you make a video on how much Mileage it has, any repairs you done, how much is oil change, any D mode hesitation, and if so what repair solution you did., thanks ahead of time.

[@triggersociety12]

@thedon8176 I appreciate it man. I may touch on those. It's pretty new still. A 2022

[@eduardodominguez3372]

Gracias por explicar como funciona Buen trabajo!!!

[@jakesgr8sakiorjoe58]

I feel you man! I got an auto for the same reason. Don’t want to shift. I’m 42. Been there done that. My 2018 GT that I got like a month ago is everything I have ever dreamed of. I had an 88 GT with the T5 as a kid around 2000 till about 2010 when I sold it. Biggest regret ever. This new one I got rips with the automatic in any mode. I’m a straight line guy and there’s no reason to try to manually shift this automatic trans. Unless maybe you are on a road course or want to sound cool downshifting your automatic transmission. It does sound cool if you do it right. But usually you just look like an idiot. 😂 Thanks for the tips. The only thing I miss so far is putting in the clutch and revving the engine when I don’t want to go forward any faster. I guess I could put it in neutral but seems weird and I haven’t even tried that while rolling.

[@brodybrooks641]

Here’s my question.. I just bought a 2015 s550 GT auto. Can I just put it in sport and drive or do I need to use the paddles?

[@triggersociety12]

In Sport if u down shift with the paddles, it won't upshift unless u do it on the paddle or if u click it into D after u take off in the gear u want

[@FunkyBananaBear]

You don't need to use paddles if you're driving an automatic car... those are just optional for manual driving

[@In_Rem]

@@triggersociety12 when you paddle shift, your digital gear display has paddles on either side of the gear number and must be paddle shifted for the next ten seconds, if you do not attempt to paddle shift for 10 seconds the paddles lit up next to the digital gear display disappear and the tranny returns to full auto.

[@kripbloodington8714]

Do you know if you hold down both at the same time if it lets you rev Like the c8?

[@tomrakusan1179]

Ok - the paddles DO work in Drive - they just remain in effect for a few seconds after shifting, but they do work in D. In S, the car stays in manual once you use the paddles………..

[@In_Rem]

my Mach 1 after 10 seconds of not paddle shifting in either D or S paddle times out and returns to full auto

[@andrewhaberberger4903]

Bruh i had mine in manual and the paddle didn’t shift the car so i redlined for a few seconds. It’s fine and it won’t hurt that it happened once but wtf

Hello I’m curious, I’m getting a 2016 mustang. I wanted to know if They come with an automatic & manual transmission together in one car???

[@gabrieltalent9141]

The autos come with the paddles no matter what. And you'll find the car is a million times more enjoyable to drive with the paddles

[@gabrieltalent9141]

Cant belive youve bought a car meant for speed and you dont like the thing that makes it faster than other only automatic cars. You can drop a gear whenever you want which is the main reason fornthe paddles. Without the paddles this car is slow when roll racing and 5 years behind other cars.

[@triggersociety12]

For getting in the correct gear, yes it's good... for roll racing, drive and sport + is faster and more responsive with my experience

[@ItsE003]

Personally, with my S550 I’ve had some amazing pulls using the paddle shifters. It does takes some time since some of the shifts feel a second late, but that’s to be considered with 400+ hp 5000lbs. They are good for both if you know what you’re doing. Or maybe I am just optimistic since I have only used paddle shifters in other cars, still getting used to my s550 2020 15k miles barley 💪

[@ItsE003]

I meant to say I’ve used paddle shifters in other cars for longer time than I have in my S550

[@In_Rem]

@@triggersociety12 D goes through the gears too fast for the high RPM torque curve, S stays in the lower gears longer so you are running in the torque curve

[@liarliar1408]

But paddle shifting is what them pros are using with their NASCAR n formula cars. Finger shifting that is. Faster shifting like playing a video game.

[@buraaqwasti7729]

Their steering wheels and turn radius are super different then street driving
