Hi you need to be in drive on a hill the neutral means it is not driving so it will roll back. the lever in park locks a steel pin in the flywheel. so when on a hill it should be in drive not neutral. when in neutral nothing is stopping from rolling forwards or back wards.
Your transmision should be able to take it
but i always baby my car parts
so before i put it in park on a hill i apply the parking brake then shift to park
when i want to leave i shift to drive and release the parking brake
your transmision will appreciate it in the long run!
Even slow roll-back can bend forks in the transmission. It is a common cause of death in Honda transmissions.
No, in an automatic transmission cars there is a torque converter that allows a progressive transfer of power to the wheels. Although its illogical to do that, engineers put these factors in consideration that people might habitually do these things
So again no, its fine.
don't put in drive while sill rolling backwards, it can break your transmission.
coasting in neutral is against the law in some states... so is engine braking
should be ok theoretically but i don't think it's a good practice though
Extremely bad. but doing it once prob won't kill your trans.
of course, LOL........."neutral drops" by foolish teens have killed many a tranny.
So your on a small hill, in neutral holding down on the break pedal. You let go and roll back about at about 1 mph or so. Change the gear to drive, and THEN apply to the gas pedal? Is this bad on the driver train?
