me opinion is that if you are in traffic and traffic just slows down then i think downshifting is ok. But say if you are driving and you see the light is red and you are going to have to come to a complete stop then i think you should use the brakes. Come on guys brake pads cost what $25 to $40, no comparison. And i think someone asked Bernie in MM&FF and he stated that the T5 puts up with alot of abuse with acceleration why put it through more by decelerating.
