if you want to pull away in second, press the snowflake button next to the gear selector

Hi Phil

Its the other way around, it sounds like he WANTS to pull away in second, hence going for a manual which gives more control.
If you have an auto and want to pull away in second, press S button to let it rev higher, and snowflake, foot on brake, give it revs, when you want to go take your foot off the brake!

I think there's a 'How to' in the maintenance guides, for swapping an auto for a manual .

tbh i now prefer auto to manual, my trooper was manual and was a night mare on long steep hills offroading, my mates rangie with its auto box made it a lot easier
