I would suggest you ring your dealer and explain your doubts.

I'm sure he will be able to advise you.

Good luck.

I don't have first hand experience with this model but it's quite a common 'fudge' on a petrol car to stop you blowing the engine with a fluffed gearchange.



Diesel cars need to be red-lined as part of the MOT emissions test (the UK annual car safety and roadworthiness check) so they don't have this feature but yes, on petrol cars it's often included with the electronics.



Nowt to worry about.
