What the "I" means
The "I" on the prndl is for putting the transmission into a gear that deactivates the traction control {if so equipped} so if you live in the snow states and you get stuck you can "rock" the car out of the snow if needed.

Got mine with the 5sp, manual, like to stir the pot myself. Have noticed that the rpms surge up about 500 between shifts and when I spoke with service they said that thay were supposed to do that "it helps with the smog control" Just annoys the crap out of me. I want to find out how to stop it, it wastes gas and can make the clutch wear faster. Also sounds like you can't drive stick. Has anyone else with a manual noticed this ?
