Bueno, actualizo la información acerca del botón D3 de la Honda CRV.
Realmente se trata de un modo que deshabilita la 4a y 5a relación, frzando al mtor a trabajar sólo en modo de 3 velocidades. Este modo LO ACTIVAS apretando el botón D3 que está en la punta de la palanca (al menos hasta la versión 2006) y comprobé que te sirve muy bien para frenar el motor cuando vienes de bajada.
Esta información la refuerza este texto:
".....The 5-speed automatic has got another agenda altogether - save effort and fuel. The automatic CR-V is markedly slower compared to the manual. It is all right for the freeways in Europe and the US, but on Indian highways, the CR-V becomes a handful to pilot.
Overtaking buses and trucks becomes dicey since the transmission takes its own time to kick-down and hurl the car forward - in the process it makes all the power and torque made by the gem of an engine somewhat redundant.
Sure, if you have bought your CR-V for hassle-free traffic slithering, then the auto-box is up to the task and yes, Honda has offered a hill descent control of sorts in the D3 mode which uses more engine braking while driving down slopes...."
