What does D3 light mean and why did it randomly?
The D3 light randomly illuminated. What does it mean and what did I do to cause this? (I was doing regular, local driving–nothing new or unusual.) Thanks.

What does D3 mean in an automatic transmission?
The D3 auto means nothing else than downshifting in a manual car. In an automatic transmission, it is a lower gear that allows the engine to rotate at a higher rate to yield more back pressure than it can at a higher gear. D3 works like downshifting in a stick shift. (Photo Source: bestcarmag)

What’s the best time to use the D3?
You can also use the D3 for city driving when the speed is less than 50km. since the D or fourth gear is suitable for highway cruising, locking it up on D3 in and around town is the best practice. Using the third gear while driving at a low speed will help you to achieve a higher rev to which the car will respond better.
