Sa mga A/T, at the stop light, naka D, N or P

Shifting from neutral to drive then vice versa i believe wouldn't break the tranny naman. Mas maniniwala ako if from park galing tas pupunta sa drive or vice versa while in traffic kasi dadaan pa yan through reverse and neutral eh. Baka yun ang tinutukoy niya kaya yan ang kanyang statement kasi that habit will definitely stress the tranny more than usual.

Engage the P (Park) if you will really park the car and will soon switch off the engine.

Remember to activate the Park/Hand break before shifting to P (Park).

I didn't know this. Una ako lagi set sa Park position ang gear then handbrake. If you come to think of it, mukha Mas maaalagaan ang tranny if you engage the handbrake first noh. Hmmmm. Gurus, may significant effect bato palagay nyo?

i handbrake first, before i P.
the P position is not designed to carry heavier loads. with sufficient pressure, it can break.
the handbrake is designed to handle pressure. in many cars, when challenged, it will usually slip, but not break.

The parking brakes are not designed to hold pressure but to hold against the wheel rotational torque. The parking brakes use Force to hold.

In some cases, as in the case of a jetliner, the hydraulic pressure is used to apply Force to the brakes to keep the wheels from turning and aircraft break away.


There is a big distinction between Force and pressure

[dr. d]

noted, sir.
force, not pressure.

Same. When parking i usually shift to N, engage the handbrake, then shift to P.

At stoplights if i know it will be along wait then i shift to N and lift the hand brake. If i know i'll be stopped for around 20 seconds or less i may opt to just keep the car in D and hold the brake.

same here

pag matagal ang stoplight, shift to N and hand brake

pag sandali lang ang stoplight naka D parin, apak preno

i never shift to P sa stoplight

Me too. I never put the car in Park in a traffic stop or anywhere on the road unless I intend to park the car.

i have read about vehicles getting their P function "dis-abled", when their vehicle got bumped from behind. a tranny component got bent or cracked off.

i used to kill the my diesel engine also, in long-ish red light, to help conserve fuel.
my trips are "not long".
hayun. my battery died 2 weeks after the 12 month warranty.
