    Currently it's an auto/Tip.

    Previously I've had one other auto/tip and also a manual Galant.

    Mine's a non-tip auto, for which you haven't put an option...

    I presume this is a mix of NA galants and VR4's.

    I was not expecting a 1/3 to 2/3 split, thought it would be much moer weighted to the Auto/Tip side of the house.

    A quick question related to this? While your driving a auto/tiptronic - can you move the gear lever from auto over to tiptronic while the vehicle is moving.

    I've been told you can't but have done many a time in a VR4. Is this a risk?? (I would imagine not as if there was it wpuld have happened by now!)
