Do you use the "Over Drive" often?

For normal driving conditions, operation of the overdrive should be enabled only if the average speed is above 70 km/h. It may be necessary to switch it off if the vehicle is being operated in a mountainous area."
So if your panel shows "OD OFF" light up, that mean the OD is OFF or ON?

1. When you engage OD button, OD light appear on your panel with label "OD OFF"
2. This is to remind you to turn it OFF
3. Press OD button again, OD light will disappear on your panel
4. This tell you that you car is back to nromal driving mode.
Hope this help. :yehyeh:

Hi sparkbt
Dun seem logical leh. If what you say is true then OD is by default turned off .. that means the fouth gear on 4AT is not availiable by default.
I think you Point 2 should read "2. This is to remind you to turn it ON"

When you press the OD button and there will be light on the panel comes on with "OD OFF"....this means that your OD is ON and the system is "reminding" you consistently to turn it off.
Driving with OD on will consume more fuel...the same logic applies when u drive a manual car....when you want to overtake, u down shift ur gear and step on the accelerator to give u the sudden boast of power to lurch forward...but this consume more fuel...the same logic as dragging gear....so with OD ON...it means u r constantly dragging ur gear....
Was scolded by my driving instructor for dragging every gear when i was a student....tat is why when u see those zheng car....they sound like zooooooommmm........zoooooooommmmm......zoooommmmm......:yehyeh: :yehyeh: :yehyeh:

Your OD is OFF not on, meaning you are on 3rd gear. ;)

OD is not the highest gear. It represent 3rd gear. ;)

I just read the owner manual,
"Each time the engine is started, the transmission is automatically reset to OD "ON"."
"Push the OD switch to turn the OD "ON". The OD off indicator light will turn off.
In short, when OD is ON, the OD off indicator light should be off; when OD is OFF, the OD off indicator light should light up.
