    number 5 is not accurate, if you are stuck in traffic for alot of minutes, it's better to put it in neutral, having it on Drive when not moving just heats up your transmission and actually strains it.

    I don't think setting it to neutral in traffic light is bad for the transmission. setting it to Drive while your foot is on the brake is actually bad when you are in the traffic light with more than 60seconds time intervals. Because you are resisting the Drive mode a lot and putting much stress in transmission, why? when you set off your foot from the brake while in a Drive mode, your car starts to roll even without stepping on the throttle, that's how drive mode works and you are resisting it for a long period of time. so... if less than 60seconds, hitting brake while on the drive mode is fine but more than a minute is not actually good with your transmission.
    But the rest in this video is actually accurate.

      If you need to put it in neutral especially on a long stop, give the throttle a blip just before changing into gear, you should get a nice smooth change.

    5 and 2 are the ones that stuck out as kinda mis-leading, with 5 yes having the transmission in D at a stop light can help you make a move quickly but with older cars that have higher mileage putting the car in neutral does help with transmission life as that excess heat created from the Torque Converter in the transmission can put that heat into the fluid and wear it out over-time if you sit at long lights in the hot summer with the engine hot it will cook the trans fluid over-time, but if it's a short light and you do that at every light you can wear out the shifter linkage or stretch the cable yes, now with 5 and the fuel, the car will be able to maintain proper fuel pressure due to the PCM or ECM controlling the pump and keeping it running to regulate that pressure UNTIL it can't at which point the car would just stall out, but the biggest thing was you saying you can wear out components of the car by running fuel low is kinda correct wit the FUEL pump cause the gas lubricates and cools the pump so it can wear out or overheat but the engine is NOT lubricated in a gas car as it is a solvent, engine oil lubricates the engine not the fuel, that's why even 2 stroke engines require and oil premix/ oil injection to stay running because gas alone would actually strip all the oil off the components, it's why it can be used as a parts cleaner in a pinch due to it's ability to dissolve oil so well, just wanted to help clear that up

    For CVT transmission, best practice for neutral if the traffic lights is gonna be for some time. Gears rotating when the car is not moving, will hurt the transmission sooner or later. CVT belts are weak.

    'Stay in gear with foot on the brake at traffic lights'.
    Others say keeping your foot on the brake annoys drivers behind with brake lights. What's it to be?

    • @phubblewubbphubblewubb
      @phubblewubbphubblewubb 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's not the brake lights, most manual car drivers use the foot brake at lights etc. It's dangerous as if there is a rear end shunt or you just get distracted your vehicle will shoot forward.

      When you need to pull or push your car. Also before you put your car in park, first put it in neutral, then activate the handbrakes and then put it in park. It's better for your transmission especially when you are in a slope. And finally some car wash need you to put your car in neutral to work.

      I use neutral during stops that will definitely last for more than 10 secs.
      My car vibrates when put in D while stop and I don't think that's good in the long run since the car is trying to move but cant. Putting it in neutral seems to make the car more at ease or maybe that's just my car.
      But i do think constantly shifting D and N is bad during stop and go which I think is what the video is trying to say.
      Or maybe its case to case. Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. 😅

They have a low energy density and if they happen to overheat this can lead to a fire that is extremely difficult to extinguish due to the fact that combustion process in lithium ion batteries produces more than enough oxygen to maintain itself. This is a major problem. As for your remark "how pathetic", my response is "there are none so blind as those who will not see".
