Speaking of AT's and brake wear, I was just posting about reducing break wear when driving in normal grandma traffic conditions in another thread the other day: My m6 habbits, good or bad?
The same techniques can be applied on an AT car as well, especially on our 7AT, although most AT drivers really aren't the type to bother (or really even be aware of such things).
