i tend to shift to neutral while driving down a hill or when coming to a stop. sometimes, i shift back to drive from neutral while the car is still going. a few people i know do the same thing. is this bad for my car? thanks

 

I do that sometimes on my older vehicles when stoped at a long light but not when the car is rolling. I don't know the ans to yur question however.

Mr P.

 

Actually, I do the same thing. When approaching a light that I know isn't going to change right away, I put the car in neutral. Don't see how that could be bad, you're using less gas and it takes less effort to stop the car.

 

actually i noticed that it is easier to stop the car while it is in drive.
