Default Upshift light

I was driving around some twisties yesterday in D, at around 2.K on a lightish throttle and I had the upshift light come on, never knew they worked on auto's.

Are all years like that or just 86?

Regards

Barry

On my '86 I usually drive around town in "D". The upshift light comes on at about 30-35 MPH. Stays on till I slow down or shift into "OD". Just a little fuel economy reminder from GM.
