The transmission programming for the SpeedShift is a little different. On the '03 models, you had to be in "M" mode in order to use the steering wheel "buttons" to change gears. On the '04s, you can be in S, C, or M, and select gears using the steering buttons. On the '05, when you downshift, it selects the next lowest gear, instead of going down 5-4-3-2-1.
