what is o/d off? - 6G Celicas Forums

You got an automatic? OD is overdrive. O/D off is the tale-tale lamp that tells you that OD is currently disengaged. There shoud be a switch on or near your shifter/gearstick that turns it on and off.
OD is an extra gear for cruising at high speeds. It lowers the engine revs, thus reducing the work the engine has to do, saves fuel, reduces engine noise and reduces wear and tear on the transmission (because the engine is running slower).

i just means that instead of driving in 4 gears, you're only using three.
hence you felt faster cause your rpms were up and there was more throttle response.

my car feels slower with over drive off .... and yes almost everything can beat our cars except in looks
Doesnt matter for racing...under full throttle you will not go into overdrive even if its on.

around 90mph you'll go into OD and it'll pull very very slowly. leave OD off and 3rd will pull all the way to 110 *ahem*

o/d off should make you go slower, at least thats what i feel.
Also whenever i see our cars for sale it says AUTO 5spd with o/d, doesnt that mean you drive in 4 gears and the 5th is for highway driving with lower rpms?
im not really sure, but yea can someone also clear up which is faster? with o/d or without it?

racing...bad bad boy...racing only gets you in trouble...
yea i was just wondering, i really dont race, not in a slowica! 70hp...

yours is a manual tranny. therefore no drive gear. the reason yours has a light is cuz they use most of the same parts in both auto and manual transmission IE Gauge cluster. my car doesn't have ABS yet there is a place for the abs light in the cluster. it is just cheaper for toyota to make more universal parts than to make a whole new gauge cluster just for that different specific light. the only diff in the automatic cluster and the manual tranny cluster is it will show what gear you are in on the automatic cluster. P R N D D2 D1 Or however it goes. i have a manual so i don't know the order
