Does anybody know how to drive in manual mode like where do I put the shifter and everything? Thanks for your help. The car has no problems. I was just asking how to put it in manual mode since I’ve seen videos that say you can put it in manual mode even though the car it’s automatic.

I have the vehicle listed above Type S.

Take a look at the image and it explains the way to select the sport shift option. However, that transmission has a very bad reputation for failures. There was a lawsuit extending the warranty to 109,000 miles but even the replacement units tend to fail and lock up so I'm not sure I would want to drive it in any sort of aggressive manner.
