5 Spd Auto?

When I switch to the AutoStick mode, I only see gears 1-4 on the dashboard. When i move the stick to the right, it goes to "D". Is D the 5th gear?

yes I beleive it is.... BUT, really depends on the speed of your car, "D" will always try and get the revs in the appropiate place... I'm sure you know what I mean.

Yes, D is 5th IF you are shifting manually. Otherwise (letting the car shift on it's own) D could mean any gear. The numbers are only visible when you run in "touch shift" (i.e. autostick) mode. But there's never a "5".
