One turn to start 07/08 TL

Posting a question on here since I couldn't find the thread where this was covered earlier. As most people know by now, the 07/08 TLs have the ability to start with just turning the key once to the start position and letting go, opposed to holding it there.

Do the 6mt TLs have this function as well? Of course while keeping the clutch engaged

If I recall correctly the MT does not have 1 turn start.

Correct, manuals don't have that feature.

I mean, it's 1 turn, you just hold it in that position till the engine fires up, then let go

but, manuals do have a built in jump starter in case of battery failure if you park at the top of a hill or parking building exit ramp

only if your battery has enough juice for spark son, if you have a complete death battery you mind as well calling a tow truck.

I prefer the holding method when your battery is about to go south. Can get that extra crank.
