i have a question. when you're slowing down, do you have to downshift? i've never driven a stick, so i dont know when i should downshift.

Careful down shifting on compramised surfaces it might cause you to shat your drawers !
I think the owners novel tells you what is safe and has a disclaimer as to slick roads ................

it tells you the fastest speeds to drive within each gear, but it doesn't tell you when to downshift if you even need to.
