To a point. You can shift it into L and it wont try and shift. Then go to 2 and it will shift there and stay. Then go to D and it will go manually. On down shifting the newer ones will not allow you to go back down unless the transmission is below a certain speed. But you can still get some back pressure if you go from D to 2 or 2 to L. It does assist you in stopping if that is needed. Usually this is helpful if you are pulling a load and going up or down a hill. By keeping it in a gear you select the car wont have to work so hard going back and forth between gears. Also not work the brake so hard on the down hill side.
