Hi to all sifus here. Need your opinion. For CVT, the L mode usually use in going downhill to maximize the engine braking. I seldom use it as i mostly drive in the city. Today, i accidentally shift mine into L mode instead of D.
No wonder my car felt more powerful and faster in pick up and acceleration. But i didn't notice anything as the speaker was loud so i didn't aware of the engine sound as well. When i reach home and ready to park my car, then only i realized i was driving in L mode all the while.
So i was wondering is it ok to drive in L mode as long as he RPM does not go beyond the limit? Or will it damage my transmission and engine?
This is the 1st time but kinda worried it will cause lot of damage to my car. Please advice

Your FC gone south lor. Your car got rev limiter so won't easily redline, but running at high RPM for too long may cause the engine to heat up and wear more on the parts.No wonder my car felt more powerful and faster in pick up and acceleration.
