[QUOTE="Jules, post: 541932, member: 88"] kimi, perhaps my question is why would you need to coast ie. shifting to neutral while your car is still moving? i would even suggesting leaving it in D ( with brake pedal pressed ) when stationary for the emergency case you need to inch forward or move out of harms way when a vehicle behind you starts emergency braking! The brakes are pressed as it activates your rear brake lights to inform the driver behind you are stopped......plus it also saves your auto box from premature wear. ( so i was told ) if all fails, drive a manual and you are in complete control! :) [/QUOTE]
