I believe it downshifts fine. I'm looking at the car tomorrow. He was very unsure on anything technical. As he explained it briefly over the phone, from a stop with the car in D, the car won't move initially unless the rpm's are high, then the car shifts ok in all the other gears.

Possibly the car is just hesitating a long time when put into D and he's impatient. Maybe dirty tranny filter?

I just wanted to check with everyone here to see if they had any similar experiences. That way when I look at the car/test drive I can diagnose it better.

Thanks
