Automatic cars have recently become more popular. Easier operation than manual cars, making automatic cars more preferable. But still, there are a number of things that must be considered when driving an automatic car. For example avoiding a number of things that trigger damage from an automatic car.
Here are some things to avoid so that automatic cars don’t break quickly, as quoted by detikOto from the Nissan Indonesia website.
1. Shifting the Transmission to Neutral on Downhill
Maybe there are some motorists who think that moving the transmission lever to a neutral position can make fuel consumption more economical, especially when crossing downhill. This actually triggers damage to the car’s transmission. If the transmission is damaged, the cost to repair the transmission will be very expensive. The point is to save money, which is actually spend more.
2. Shifting the Transmission while the Car is Still Running
Avoid moving the transmission when the car is in a position where it has not completely stopped. For example, when you are parking, when you want to go forward or backward, make sure the car is in a new stop position to shift the transmission. Forcing the transmission to move without stopping, this can reduce the age of the transmission itself.
Likewise, when the car is parked, make sure the car is completely stopped. When the car stops and you shift the transmission to P, there will be a lock-up mechanism that prevents the rotating gear from moving the wheels. Shifting into P transmission when the car has not come to a complete stop is tantamount to pitting the lock mechanism against the gear. Iron collides with iron with great engine power and this obviously destroys more quickly.
3. Step on the Gas Pedal in the ‘N’ Position and Immediately Move to ‘D’
Membejek gas in neutral position makes the car ready to distribute great power. While the gears are in charge of shifting gears. Having a lot of power and immediately moving to D can make the car skid and the transmission wears out quickly. For that, step on the brakes first before shifting gears to position D so that the power can be channeled accordingly.
