I can answer the 2nd question.

If you notice bellow the Drive on the shifter, there is lower setting.

those are called paddle shifters. Like a standard tranny, but /w no clutch.

It's good for the hwy I find, but not city driving where you have to turn and such.

My 2¢ anyway

It's my wife's car, so I don't play that much with it.

A question back about the LTZ, what is your idle RPM's sitting on park?

or anybody else /w the 3.6, I think the one we have, feels like it revs to high at idle.

3-Homelink, you can set it up to open your garage door or turn on the lights in your house.

It's in your owners manual. My garage door is really new and it didn't work at first. I called Homelink (number is in there too) and they were able to walk me through it. You can program up to three things, I just have my garage door hooked up so far.

Both of the paddles do the same thing, it just depends on which hand you want to use.

I'm pretty sure the Bluetooth only works for calls, not music. Although, I've never tried it. Now, you've got me curious...

Around 800 rpm's engine warmed up, around 1400 on a cold start.

Thats what got me curios too. The sound from my mobile must be transmitted somewhere but i don't know where. I will continue play with it until i figure it out or i give up which happens first.

If your phone has an out put jack you could hook it up with a jack cable to the input on your car's stereo.

First check whether connection is ok or not. you can solve your problem by reading manual.

The connection OK because i can make and receive calls without any problems
