January 9th, 2015 02:31 PM #102Nakalagay naman sa user manual ng A/T car yung proper way of flat towing. Maximum 50km yan, not 15km.
Emergency Towing / Flat Towing
In case of a roadside emergency with a disabled vehicle (without access to wheel dollies, car hauling trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle) your vehicle (regardless of transmission powertrain configuration) can be flat towed (all wheels on the ground) under the following conditions:
- Vehicle is facing forward so that it is being towed in a forward direction.
- Place the transmission in N (Neutral)
- Maximum speed is not to exceed 50 km/h
- Maximum distance is 50 km
- Put the key in "ACC" (engine off) or "ON" (engine running)

Nakita ko po recently sa FB page ng top gear yung nangyari sa isang fortuner, na bumangga sa 7-11,
2 possible reasons lang po ang nakikita ko.
1. Newbie Driver
2. Lack of awareness, (distraction dahil may kausap sa CP [Common]) at nakalimutan ilagay sa "N" or sa "P"
Since gate-type shift po ang fortuner, (nakapag-drive na rin po ako) kahit hindi fully depressed sa brake pedal, From D, papasok sa N going to P,
Kaya maging aware at vigilant po tayong lahat all the times... AT man or MT,
Hopefully, no one is injured from both sides during this kind of accident.

yung "P" kasi, iikot nang kaunti yung metal gear sa loob ng AT, hanggang "mag-shoot in" sa butas yung pantusok (anubanaman kasi itong tagalog... so cumbersome to use when describing technical details!) para hindi na umikit... with wear and tear, tolerances increase and this movement increases also.. just a few inches..
in most handbrakes, it is the brakepads that push against the brake disc or brake drum, and no movement is allowed whatsoever..
btw, the "P" is a safety feature and is not designed to replace the handbrake. it is also easy to destroy that "P"... as in, kapag nabangga (or so it is written)..

noob question again,
Pag R (reverse) ba, and you release the break it will move already slightly like in D? or sa D lang yun?

January 27th, 2015 07:25 PM #110We used to have a joke when we were in High School:
P for Power
R for Race
N for Nitro
D for Destroy
Engines also work harder, right?
