After reading it, I just want to say that these networks are car gods, which are harmful to people! For the method of stopping and turning off an automatic car, they usually say: when stopping and turning off an automatic car, you should first put it in neutral, turn off the engine in neutral position, and then put it in P gear, so as to avoid the shift impact inside the gearbox during the process of putting it in P gear and better protect the gearbox. What's more, it will be more serious. For example, "stop the car, put it in P gear and turn off the engine. Your gearbox is not far from destruction! " "Be sure to turn off the engine in neutral when parking, otherwise it will greatly shorten the service life of the gearbox", and so on. You will be at a loss after reading it, and decades-old drivers are afraid to drive.
In fact, the parking method of the automatic car mentioned above is extremely wrong, and the owner has also proved its error, inoperability and even certain danger with facts. Since the birth of automatic transmission car, there is no instruction manual of any model stating that the car must be put in neutral to stop the engine, otherwise it will damage the gearbox. On the contrary, all models stipulate that the car must be turned off in P gear. The correct way to stop and turn off the engine is to step on the brake after stopping, put the gearbox in P gear, then pull the hand brake, turn off the engine, and finally release the foot brake.
So how did the so-called "neutral flameout" of those Internet gods come from? I think they may not understand the working principle of automatic gearbox, and take it for granted that they need to go through reverse gear in the process of shifting into P gear, which will temporarily impact the gearbox, and then exaggerate that it will damage the gearbox, so they have to stall in neutral.
In fact, in the current automatic gearbox, when the engine stops and the brake pedal is pressed, the gearbox is in neutral. At this time, no matter where the shift lever is set, the inside of the gearbox will not move. Only when the brake pedal is released, the shift mechanism inside the gearbox will be hung to the gear corresponding to the shift lever. Even the old-fashioned hydro-mechanical gearbox briefly passes through the reverse gear in the process of shifting into the P gear. Although the reverse oil circuit will be instantly connected, it will be instantly disconnected, and the impact on the gearbox can be ignored. The gearbox is much more durable than you think. On the contrary, turning off the engine in neutral and then shifting into P gear after parking may lead to logical misjudgment of the gearbox, which may lead to the problems described by the subject and even lead to danger. Therefore, if you drive an automatic car to stop and turn off the fire, you just need to put it into the P gear to turn off the fire. Never turn off your phone in neutral.
