those are the gears! L (low) is a million surely the vehicle has 5 gears. whilst in force the vehicle will at once substitute between those gears (L or probable 2 to start from relax after which as much as 5 whilst cruising on the highway. once you decelerate or bypass up a hill it extremely is going to at once substitute to a decrease kit. in spite of the undeniable fact that it must be that your want a touch greater administration over the vehicle. then you may pass the lever to the different gears. enable's say you have been going on a steep hill you should pass it into 4 or 3 so as that the engine will sluggish the vehicle down. Or for greater acceleration you should place it into 4. interior the decrease numbers the gears will nevertheless substitute down at once yet won't substitute above the instruction manual kit you're in. working example with the lever on 4 the vehicle won't substitute as much as 5. you'll be able to ought to maintain a watch on the rev counter as you're waiting to over rev the engine. besides the undeniable fact that they often have rev-limiters included. positioned it this way, while you're doing 100mph and pass the kit lever to 2/3 it probable won't substitute down because of fact the revs may well be too severe (blow the engine up). In my vehicle it in basic terms won't substitute down if going too rapid. wish that helps (besides the undeniable fact that maximum persons do no longer use the instruction manual gears) in case you desire to objective it out effectively try this. On a promptly sparkling street cruise alongside at 60-70 mph. shop your foot the place it extremely is on the accelerator and push the gearlever from D to 4. you will no longer word lots different than the rev counter will bypass up and the engine will sound a touch louder. you would be on the comparable speed however the engine is popping over swifter. Push the lever back into D. back the revs will bypass down and the engine wuill be quieter.

L is for LOW gear. When you put the car into reverse the R light should be lit and not the L. It sounds like some linkage is misadjusted or worn. Should be an easy fix for a transmission shop or a regular repair shop.

L = Low gear. Your reverse gear is probably automatically a low gear.

L = "Low" gear.
Reverse also uses the low gear ratio (in addition to the reversing gears), so that's why it light's up, too.
