[QUOTE="moots, post: 44181, member: 219"] I am no expert and my judgement is based on logic. There is actually no right nor wrong.It is OK to use D2 in traffic.It is OK to use D2 to go uphill.Both cases is becoz we do not want the gear to hunt. Shifting into and out of D will cause damage....in the looooong run,as the gear train ,prop shaft,diff gearbox,drive shaft,cv joint will be jarred at every shift from D/N/D,albeit ever so softly. General rule is....to drive,select D and leave it there.When drive is over,select N or P. [/QUOTE]
