Traffic Jam Talks - EP1 - New or Used car? The Satisfication? [Ben Lau]
มุมมอง 2354 ปีที่แล้ว
Hello & welcome to the 1st episode of the series! In this series, I do talk my sensible thoughts out while wading thru the traffic jam thru/from work. (Do not worry, I am aware of my safety whilst driving). So in this episode, this is what I was asked the most often by my friends, new or used car? Are you going to be satisfied with your decision then? No numbers involved yet (if that is a good ...

Hello again, it has been a while uploading another one of these events online. This show is a big one from the storm build-up. At one point around 10pm, it was getting less and less promising with no sign of lights coming up and the moon rising when suddenly the readings shot up. Overall, should I have given up at 10pm, I would have missed the climax of the lights. Thanks to the admins back in ...

Location: Evandale, TAS Date : 28th May 2017 Time : 6.30pm - 10pm My 1st upload to TH-cam on my aurora video for my stay here in Tasmania. Braved the rain for this one and was a huge one although I may admit my camera positioning is not very good and so does my edit yet. Hope you guys enjoy the video!
Od off holds onto 1 2 3 gears longer
Thank you. At last, I know this function.
Been searching for a clear explanation of this function as I've recently switched to an automatic that has this feature, thank you.
Im glad currently car makers have eliminated this confusion called "Overdrive" and have built better transmissions
This explains it so well with my 2003 Tacoma. It has this feature and I've always wanted to know how it works! Thank you.
Thanks 👍. Good explanation.
6 speed also have overdrive
I first believe you use overdrive on when climbing a hill after careful consideration and calculation i discover dat turning on the overdrive switch on an hill is very bad to the transmission cause at that point it need torque not speed so what are the gear responsible 1st,2nd 3rd it before you climb a hill you put on the overdrive not when you are on the high already everyother point you made are correct
Thanks but what does it mean when O/D is continuously appear in the tab and the car can't move faster ?
Merhaba benim 1998 model mondeom var. 4 e gecmiyor. 3 viteste uzun yol gittigi zaman 4 e gecemediginden o/d off isigi yanip sonuyor. O/d off işlemsiz . Sizce ne olabilir
understanding level is 50-50 for me. So, to clear them- 1) overdrive on means speedup? 2) what if i always keep it on? (dashboard light is not popping, so i assume its on) 3) or always turn it off? i have camry 2004
Very confusin simply tell when the light blinks on speed meter what it means, OD is on or of. It is functiong and car in third gear. If no light its mean high spead and good fuel average.
Does over drive function interfere with speed of the vehicle including gears changing?
Helpful video. I was too confused with this function. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. You have really helped me.
Wow....this nice
Excelente explanation. Thanks
Yo so when the button is not pushed in on the dash it’s a firm light and then when pressed in it blinks which on is off ? 💀😂 plz someone let me know
light on OD off
Situation 3: Hauling heavy loads/pulling trailer
I hit the O/D button on my shifter while I was driving, the lights started blinking and the button won't turn it off while I'm driving. When I turn the truck off and restart the light is gone but as I'm picking up speed the O/D light comes back on flashing. I have a 2004 ford ranger 3.0 automatic transmission. Can I bypass this feature so I can go back home. I'm out of state. When I'm driving and the light is blinking the button won't turn the overdrive back on. It drove out of state really good. Please help me with this issue
If you listen he says the overdrive is on when going over 65 mph it helps with fuel efficiency. Therefore wasting less gas in the long run it’s not anything bad. It sounds like your car does this automatically.
Great explanation!
Thanks Until now I was driving in the lower gear on highway
thanks for the video, quick and thorough explanation!
I only turn it off when I'm pulling a trailer.
Turning Overdrive on is keeping the gear at midrange to remain in high torque requirement like in going up hill and down hill to reduce break usage.
You have it mixed up brother. Its the other way around
Sooo basically it’s like another sport mode because I have a 2018 Altima and it has sport mode and the over drive button I’m confused
Sorta kinda , if I had ur car I'd just use sport mode. O/d off is only for up hills or down hills . I have an 01 maxima sometimes I leave it on all the time unless I go over 50. Definitely like a sport mode keeps the rpms higher
Should OD off be used when going down a hill?
I noticed it helps ..don't have to brake as my much. All cars Infront you'll see the brake lights, but you will just be slow n steady. Yeah , up hills and down hills
good informatif channel
So I turn it in over speeds of 45? Im so lost
Leave it on soon as the car starts and only press it to gain power climbing a steep hill when the engine revs start dropping. Also when heavy loads or towing too. Stops the vehicle going into fourth, your hear the engine revving/screaming its nuts off to let you know to turn it on again. Hope that helps👌🏻
Which one saves fuel
@@ezeokevictor5319 that’s what I wanna know
@@ezeokevictor5319 overdrive on saves the fuel..
turn O/D off in traffic jam to avoid continuously slipping between last gear and O/D to preserve tranny , hilly terrain or any situation you need engine brake . At constant speed like freeway or highway , turn it back on
Nice, editing 👌👍👏😀
Thanks dude for keeping it sweet and simple
Thanks
Thank you very much
Lies I have a 2016 Nissan Versa with the same button
Nissan sentra B17 comes with this
Thanks for the info! There are a few spots on my commutes that my car has trouble with. Ill have to try this!
good video thanks
We don't have that button these days because ,we are being forced to like the CVT gearbox 😂😂😂😂
My cvt has a OD off button..
@@robertwalters8689 owh
ben lau is so cuteeee!
