Just don't let GJ back a car out of a garage and you're good! ;)

Yeah, she is right- the ONLY thing you have to worry about is me backing your car out of a garage. Everything else about me is just fine.

All of my stories are true. Not all stories are true. My stories are not all mine.

Well I will confess my story of stupidity. I was walking out of the grocery store and started my sky with an auto start. As I was walking a heard someone yell "is he drunk?" Then I saw a van leap backwards. As I stared walking through parked cars, I saw my car head butting the van. I left my standard in gear and it leap frogged across the parking lot trying to start.  I've never used it again!

There is supposed to be a gear indicator sensor on a manual with auto start to prevent that - isn't  there?

If you put it in a 5 speed manual, that may have been bypassed.

I do my own installs and bypassed the safety cause "I know what I'm doing" lol I've  always had auto start. Knocked  the front a little but only a $140 fix.

I'm not really a speed driver so I'm not sure.
