What is the power drive button in my car?
I got a 99 honda passport, 2 wd. I've always seen the button there but I've never used it. What does it do, and what is this power drive meant to be used for?
It is a drive mode, where the transmission shifts a little later at a higher rpm. The car has more power/acceleration when it is at higher rpm.
From Honda:
For added convenience and ease of operation, Passport is available with a 4-speed automatic transmission (std. On EX). It features electronically controlled shifting, plus a lockup torque converter in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears for increased fuel economy. Also, it offers selectable "Power" and "Winter" shift modes, so drivers can choose which shift pattern best meets their needs. In "Power," the gears are held longer so the engine can rev higher for better acceleration: in "Winter," the transmission starts off the line in 3rd gear, to eliminate wheel spin on slippery surfaces
- What's the home button on the roof of my car? My car is Honda 2001 EX, I saw a button which is "home icon" on the roof, but I had no idea what's it for, when I pressed it, the red light blinked once and nothing happened.
- What is the winter button in my car? There's a "winter" button right next to my hand brake, what does it do? My car is a 1999 Honda Passport 2 wheel drive v6, if that's inportant.
- Prius: Can someone explain the power usage meter & specific difference between power mode and Eco mode? My brother just got me a Prius to replace my old beater Honda and I'm having difficulty understanding the power usage meter (meter on dash with "Charge-Eco-Power") and the difference in the Eco & Power modes. I do understand the charge bit on the meter.
- 2006 Honda Odyssey aux/xm button not working? Hi, I have a 2006 Odyssey. The aux/xm button has stopped doing anything, regardless of whether an iPod is plugged into the glove-box auxiliary port. When an iPod is plugged in, the iPod shows as charging, but depressing the aux/xm button doesn't load the iPod. The AM, FM, and CD buttons are all working fine.
