@lassepeterson2740 Then why are you driving a stick in the first place? If you hate shifting, then get an automatic, or one of the manumatics that are often available, or the manual gates of some automatics. I have the old 4Spd Sport stick auto in my Mazda Protege 5 wagon (US model) and I use that all the time as if it's a manual. Always start off in 1st and yes, it's a short gear so must shift it sooner to 2nd than 2nd to 3rd. Occasionally, the autobox does not drop down to 1st, so I end up starting in another gear, but immediately have to get it to 1st, to take off, but the car is not the fastest anyway.
Otherwise, it runs through all 4 gears quickly, but the performance is lackluster.
