hazmatic Posted June 29, 2003 Report Posted June 29, 2003 when i drive i drive with my left hand on the steering wheel n my right hand on the shifter i kinda lean on it n someone told me i shouldnt do that they said that is what makes the transmission slipp when u lean on it like that Quote
ismellrealbad Posted June 29, 2003 Report Posted June 29, 2003 ok well whoever told u that isnt too bright. i bet that person who told u this leans on theirs, but they lean on it so damn hard (tryin to drive like a ricer) that it just bareley nudges into neutral, then they are like "oh shit" panic for a sec and change their sitting positin and it nudges back into D Quote
Redfox340 Posted June 29, 2003 Report Posted June 29, 2003 Yeah, that's partly correct because when you're in Overdrive [if that's where you put the stick when driving] and putting some pressure behind it, the next gear selection is Neutral. EDIT: Damn Rob, you beat me to it... Nice one!! - Erik Quote
patgizz Posted June 29, 2003 Report Posted June 29, 2003 its more for manual trans cars, putting pressure against the shifter moving the gears around a little could be causing them to wear against themselves, the case, or a linkage. Quote
hazmatic Posted June 29, 2003 Author Report Posted June 29, 2003 my g/f mother told me that but ya i drive like that i but i hardly put pressure on it if nethin im pushin it down towards the gornw not shiftin down or up so it doesnt matter??? Quote
Redfox340 Posted June 29, 2003 Report Posted June 29, 2003 so it doesnt matter??? No, sounds like you've got either a fluid problem or some minor internal failure starting. - Erik Quote
hazmatic Posted June 29, 2003 Author Report Posted June 29, 2003 i dont got ne problem at all my transmission is fine she just told me that Quote
91GranSport Posted June 30, 2003 Report Posted June 30, 2003 Whoever told you that is a fucking idiot. Your tranny won't slip unless there's something mechanically wrong with it. when i drive i drive with my left hand on the steering wheel n my right hand on the shifter i kinda lean on it n someone told me i shouldnt do that they said that is what makes the transmission slipp when u lean on it like that Quote
hazmatic Posted June 30, 2003 Author Report Posted June 30, 2003 thats what i figured i keep tellin her that but shes like ur wrong ill have to sho her this thread Quote
Guest RedCutlassSL Posted June 30, 2003 Report Posted June 30, 2003 you weren't sure if that was true or not, yet you were talking about doing the L67 swap. Um...doesn't compute Quote
