what's the use of "N" in a AT?

[dhisky]

Handbrake, cable type directly sa brakes, while yung foot brake, is hydraulic type, kaya incase na mawalan ng foot brake during emergency, ang last resort is yung handbrake (parking brake) in a certain speed. saka ang handbrake, ay very important, dahil ito yung nag-hold sa sasakyan during parking, kung paved or inclined.


kung iaasa sa handbrake during heavy traffic at naka engaged sa D, di lang transmission ang masisira, pati na rin yung brake lining/ parking brake assembly at yung cable itself connecting to the handbrake lever.

Handbrake is also a "Cheat" to temporarily disable the ABS, sabay tapak sa foot brake at pull ng handbrake.



Agree for that Sir Sientobente.

hindi talaga kaya ng handbrake sa sa mga high torque vehicle, usage lang talaga for parking at incase of emergency event.


Neutral ------ Naka-disconnect ang transmission at yung differential both AT & MT

To save wear and tear + yung strain sa transmission during heavy traffic, and preventing transmission overheat.

It also help yung sasakyan to push temporarily lalo sa AT kung kailangan mag-series ng battery, for engine startup.

So pag heavy traffic and full stop much better ang N + Foot Brake? what if you want to rest your right leg N + HB will be enough? or this is the time you put it on "P"?
