Does your automagic roll backwards?

Has anyone else noticed their 2k automagic rolling backwards if you're on a hill without using the brake (Of course, STOPPED on a hill!) I've noticed it more and more. It's not bad enough to resemble a 5-speed sitting on a hill in neutral with no brake, but it definitely does roll. And it never stops - it would roll to the bottom of the hill if I let it.

Looking to get the automagic tsb done soon as this sucker is definitely slipping. Definitely going to have to mention this as well.

Yup, if your angle is steep enough, you'll roll backwards.

Good luck with the TSB fix.

You must be stepping on the brakes.

you can actually adjust the amount your auto 'creeps' .... this will probable have an effect on whether or not it rolls or not....

From your website looks like you bought the parts yourself? How much were they? Were they hard to install?

Yup. Don't remember the price now, but you can call up DaveB and ask him about it.

I wouldn't recommend doing the solenoid if you're not mechanically inclined (I'm not say you're not)... the TCM is pretty simple.

I have the first TSB's TCM if you want it (version 101). $100 shipped.

I remember the auto tranny section talking about 'excessive creep' and 'no creep' when in drive.... It would probably be there.....

Assuming that you'll be affected at all angles... imaging having creep going downhill. If you're on a flat surface, letting go the brakes will make you take off like you're stepping on the gas, right?

Yep, everytime I put it into R it goes basckwards.
But, I thought that was for RACING mode. Please help!!!

yeah, basically the 'creep' is how much your car rolls forward when you have your foot off the gas from a dead stop. So, if you adjust it to creep more somehow, it will roll back less on an incline...

Damn! I didn't realize R was for racing! Would N be used for Nitrous? Why didn't someone tell me! Nissan didn't put it in the owner's manual. They really don't know what they're doing, do they?

As for creeping, yeh, it definitely creeps forward. More concerned about the creeping backwards when on a hill with no brakes in D (D for Donkey mode?)
