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 |

OD is just the 4th gear. turning it off makes your car a 3 speed. it just disables 4th gear, thats all. leave it on. only reason they let you turn it off is if say for example you are on a curvy road and you car keeps going from 4th to 3rd and back. you would turn od off to avoid the excessive shifting.
