Transmission Shifting question
I have a 2014 IS350 F sport Rwd 8speed.
Question is, in Manual mode will the transmission up shift for you before hitting the limiter or can you just sit on the limiter and it wont shift until you hit the paddle?
Reason for asking is that my transmission will up shift for me just before redline no matter what combination of modes I have the car in (S+ M Trac off) yes press and hold Trac off.
would love some feed back from you guys.

Seems you answered your own question, no?
Transmission will shift for you. Which I actually like. Sometimes I throw it into M and let it redline-shift then I'll have it ready in low gear (numerically) when i need passing power or want to take a turn and power through it.

I've actually had it hit the limiter a few times. When you're in manual with traction off and the road is wet it'll actually bounce off the rev limiter as it's fighting to get some traction. This was from 0mph (not mid driving) though while turning.

I can force a chirp going from 1 to 2. Did it once on accident and a few other times for ****s and giggles....

This is actually dependent on what year you have, on a 2016 it will bounce off the limiter if in sport + with TRAC off. On a 2018 it will bounce off the limiter then cut off fuel for a second. So it depends on your year.
