I have a 95 525ti and have a simple question. It looks like you have three choices Automatic/Economy, Manual and Sports. I like to be able to use the power of 1st and 2nd around town and wind it up to about 4500 and have the transmission slow me down it sounds like this is fine to do but can I do it in both Manual and Sports modes? The manual says shift lever to 3/4 (4 for the 530,40) for sports so in sports mode you just stay in 3 all the time or would you go out of sports and to drive when you hit the highway to cruise at 75 for hours. I do mostly around town and alot of stop and go. Sorry if I sound dumb I just dont understand automatics too well my other bmw is a 318ti which I just love. I bought this beauty from a doctor that babied it and have only put 3,000 on it in 8 months, dont use it much. I am taking good care of it bmw lovers will be glad to know. Only 86,000 miles on this 1995.
