What does overdrive do?
What's the advantage of openning it? I always wondered what that damn button does. This post has been edited by LeonStryfe: Feb 28, 2007 - 8:55 PM |

Overdrive allows you car to go into 4th gear. If you turn it off then you are only allowing your car to reach 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear. With it on you allowing your car to go to1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4rd gear.
The user manual says for better gas mileage leave it on. You also wanna leave it on when your on the expressway
