    hello tsikot masters,

    ano po ba ang best way to pro-long the transmission of an automatic engine during traffic??

    ang habit ko po kasi ay nilalagay sa nuetral pag ka fullstop then shift to drive ulit..

    may tropa kasi ako na nagsabi dapat daw po e drive lang tapos brake na lang pag traffic.. meaning no need daw to shift to nuetral..

    alin po ba ang tama para mas tumatagal at maingatan ang transmission ko?

    thanks!

    yep shift to nuetral when in prolonged stops...pag older cars religiously change your ATF kung kaya ng yearly mas ok kundi after 2 years para fresh at replenish ang ATF nya to avoid contaminant biuld up sa transmissions.. and avoid using your nuetral to brake the car

    makikisingit na rin ako dito with my querry. yong sa akin kasi, pag naka-neutral during full stop traffic and pag shift ko sa drive, parang iba ang arangkada. is there something wrong w/ my trans.? pero what i am doing is to shift it to park kung full stop naman, then, pag balik sa drive, smooth naman ang shifting. ok lang po ba to? what ATF are you using ba? i'm using donax ATF, pero my mechanic told me that castrol ATF is better daw. I change my ATF yearly.

    Never kong i prolong ang drive in heavy traffic, I usually use neutral. Kasi when your stepping on the breaks me counter force ang transmission and break system. So it would be stressfull sa dalawa especially sa automatic tranny, parang naka steepuphill climb sya na me heavy load at di maakyat

    Me kilala nga ako laging naka babad sa Drive, ayun awa ng diyos sibak ang automatic trannynya!

    To TS, take it form the expert. hehe, tama si BG. Kung naka-stop, use "N". para madali lang ibaba sa "D".

    sir, kung di mo gagamitin ang "N" sa ganitong pagkakataon, e san mo pa sya gagamitin? E di sana wala na lang palang "N"...
