Under normal driving, does the Xfire automatic(in D) start from a standing stop in SECOND GEAR or does it start in 1st gear.

I know MB s500 start in 2nd for a smoother ride and if you STOMP it , it starts in 1st.


I feel as my Xfire is starting in 2nd gear under normal accelaration.


Does this car have a Transmission DIPSTICK?
