When I saw the post of tranmission cooler, because of Auckland traffic. i.e. stop/start, etc. should I reconsider the way I drive.
I was considering controlling the gear it is in, as opposed to letting the box decide. This means I can hold it in 2nd or 3rd or up to 4th when appropriate. I noticed when I did this, when I stopped INSERT INTO post VALUES (stop/start); it dropped to 1st again, and I needed to change up again.
The car felt more comfortable and smoother, when I did this, i.e. less jerkiness, and I was in control. Will this method have any impact on the life of the auto, as I feel the jerkiness is not good for the car.
