Skip Shift Vid
 

I havent seen this posted but I was surfing Youtube and found a vis of the Camaro and the Skip Shift. Looks too me like what everybody has said before. To avoid it dont drive like an old granny.

i think thats Embalmer's video which he's already posted on here somewhere a few days ago

ah, sorry for the repost then, I did a seach and found nothing on the site.

But a thank you to Embalmer for taking the time to make the vid.

even in the manual??

it's only in the manual v8

I've driven my car 75 miles...haven't seen the skip shift come on yet. Oh yea...and by the way....I'm getting horrible mileage too. :rolleyes:

Skip shift has been on Corvettes for 15 years...under very light acceleration it will propt you to shift to 4th to theroretically increase mileage. This is done to improve the EPA sticker for estimated mileage...not a big deal at all in everyday driving.

No the skip shift is not a glitch. Its there for gas saving measures and to avoid the Gas Guzzler Tax. Soon enough there will be something to bypass it like on the 4th gens.




:laughabove:damn ya just beat me too it...lol

When I drove a 4th gen Z28 with Skip Shift, I just started going from 1st to 3rd. Worked fine.

Emblamer, Many say they don't notice the skip shift. Are you seeing the same thing?

So how many RPMs do you have to be at to avoid skip shift?

I have one in my truck. I don't care too much for the fragrance. :laugh:
