Question re Automatic Transmission Driving Technique

[dr. d]

I don't think the reason is baka malagay mo sa reverse, kase daanan mo pa rin naman R then N bago D. The plain reason why you should not put it to P during traffic is you are not actually really parking?

i read before, that the rod that slots in place when AT is put to P, can be easily damaged by a light bump in traffic.
that is one reason why some writers recommend the handbrake over P, while in traffic.

True.

The "rod" is a hook shaped piece of metal called the parking pawl.

yespo.
we appear to be consulting the same google.

when i read up on the definition, the definition used more new and exotic words that i knew nothing about.
i did not google these new words anymore, as it might generate even more new and strange words.
heh heh.

mejo mahaba na yung thread, not sure if may nag ask na neto:

1. At what speed normally you shift from D to 2 or 1 if you are approaching an uphill? is there a certain speed advisable to do this? may nkapagsabi sakin wag ka bigla mag shift from D to 2 kapag mabilis pa takbo mo. Pero yung from 1 to 2 to D is pede daw mag shift habang moving yung sasakyan.

Also, if you are on steep gradient and let say you are at 2, do you normally floor just to catch up with speed?

Ano pa technique nyo kapag uphill yung byahe nyo, thanks.

Basahi po ang manual ng sasakyan.. nakalagay po dyan ang mga sitwasyon kung kailan gagamitin ang D, 2 at L

Kung pataas na kalsada madalas kaya na yan ng D. Tapak pa more sa accelerator para mag down shift. Wag matakot bigyan ng lakas ang makina paakyat.

Kung pababa naman at kailangan ng dagdag engine brake, pwede naman mag shift sa 2 para makatulong at hindi masunog ang preno

I never needed 2 or 1. I once used 2 though when the car was fully loaded then wala bwelo sa incline sa baguio dahil ayoko mag up shift agad ang gear.

About changing gear while on the move? Iwasan lang step ang gas while you shift, IMO.

try to modulate the pedal. flooring is not always necessary.

Oo nga no.. hindi ko pa to natry since bihira ko lang din sa uphill.

Susubukan ko na rin na apakan pa more ang gas, para mabigyan ng power, make sense[emoji4] . Magaan lng kasi paa ko, never ko pa na floor tiskot ko. Btw corolla 93 big body matic user.

Salamat sa mga idea nyo.[emoji8]

Make use of the full range of movement of your accelerator pedal, just like your brakes. U might find it enjoyable. Ü

Mine is still old school 4AT.

I would initially switch off O/D since you won't be needing the 4th gear for most of the uphill drive like in Baguio.

Upon reaching certain spots where the road would get steeper, like approaching the Lion's head, I do shift to 2.

[dr. d]

i just keep it at regular D, and let the car do the thinking.
i do not remember the last time i used anything else besides D.

You’ll know when there’s a need to use other gear settings.... Downhill engine braking, or if the A/T is oscillating between two gears, etc.

Changing gear/modes helps by keeping the driving experience more engaging, without resorting to driving an M/T.

Another, does switching OD off consumes more fuel?
