shifting into P while driving..??
What would happen if I shift my Z's automatic into P or R while driving forward (especially when very fast) .. ??

Then you better order a new Gearbox...
|
Ordinarily I would suggest that you try it and find out, but in this case the resulting damage could cost you thousands of dollars.
Then again, I don't know, maybe today's automatic transmissions have protection mechanisms to prevent these kind of mishaps. So, does the car still drive forward and reverse? Does it roll in Park? :) |
Even if you hit the selector by accident, it should get stuck in N rather than move to R or further.

Take one for the team and try it... Because science!
|
Felix, do try and let us know. Sacrificing one

It's what happens when you supercharge a crushed ice maker .... where the results are pricey and not icey

Yeah, what was that I said in another thread about juvenile questions?... There seems to be a lot of that going around lately. This thread included.

Didn't they test this on Mythbusters? The shifter would shift to P or R but the transmission would not engage past N.
|
Since the 7AT won't change gears if it would lug or overrev the engine, I'd guess that it also will not go into R or P when you are moving forward. The FSM should have details.
If you really want to test it, get rolling at about 2-3 mph (just enough for the car to think it's moving) and slide the stick into R. If it will go into R, it shouldn't do much damage at that speed. |
Use Google. Plenty of of answers on this. Not so many answers on this here.

I usually warm my headlight fluid by shifting into R from say 50 mph entering an on ramp. Not only does it assist the interface for the flux capacitor its a real hoot as well.

Excellent use of the New Thread button :ugh2:

Instead of giving $$$ to Nissan for the Gearbox,why not donate to Charity.?

Someone must be on a business trip; Rental cars are used to the abuse...

Hahaha :icon18:you can only get it if you have read "that" thread. |
I just wanted to know whether the gearbox would be automatically protected or not in that above-mentioned situation.
Never mind, I already asked for the administrator to erase my this thread. |

Download the OM and FSM and next time you have a question about how the car is supposed to operate see if the answer is in there. I haven't looked at the FSM in quite a while but I vaguely remember there being a section on how the TCM decided when to shift and how it would protect itself and the engine from things like over-reving, lugging, going into P or R when moving, &c.

I did a quick pull and my gf ( now my ex ) got so mad she put my car in reverse . I put it back in drive right away and it literally did nothing maybe our cars do have a protection mechanism. I was steaming ...not my car

Kick that bitch to the curb ... my wife may hate the way I drive but she damn sure knows better than to touch the gear lever while I'm in the driver seat.

Your acceleration would increase to 9.8 m/s2.

I did not know this thread would be so blamed like this.. Sorry for any inconvenience. I already asked to administrator to erase this trouble thread. Now I cannot erase this by myself. I hope everyone would have good time in this forum. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...8ba1161b79.jpg Sent from my SM-J100VPP using Tapatalk |
It's OK.

what if I had EVOO as the gear fluid when I did this... won't it have a different result? I mean that EVOO stuff is so legit in my engine.
