No la. If will jam, then I died already when my auto Waja stalled on the highway last time. doh.gif

If D also can stop the car when engine mati, then no need P gear already rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

i am more concern over going down hill. when going down hill in D mode if u press the pedal it move faster. but if u dont press the pedal your engine will make a huge noise.

what i normally do now i turn the gear to N and use brake to reduce the force.

Don't shift to N, that noise is just engine braking, it is perfectly normal. Use engine braking in conjuction with normal foot braking to safely descend slopes.

i dont think N is a good option. S mode better to get the engine breaking

I dont think you need to free the gear bro when going downhill, you can always use your peddle shift. Shift down and engine breaking will take place. How steep is the hill?

45degree down.... u know where is Seksyen 17 PJ? there is a small uphill and down hill road...try that and u will know what i am talking about..

ok...my 6 days old CFE being drived 200k city drive + 700km highway kl <--> jb..usually drive in manual mode...current avg fc is 9.4l/100km

found:
1. whenever my car at N or P but engine still on...y the car like shake a bit shake a bit...feeling like pulse or heartbeat like that...like car's heart is beating...

2. how to differentiate cvt whining sound sound and wind sound...my car when reach 110 or 120km/h got a found appear...but not sure what sound is that...i suspect most probably is wind sound...

3. how to determine wind sound is from which pillar? I think my car RHS wind sound coming from A or B or Both pillar, and LHS like from A pillar..

4. how to determine wind sound is from C pillar?

5. whenever motorbike or vehicle tat produce loud noise pass by...I can hear them clearly...so the sound proof of the car like not very good...

anyone face the issue 1 too?

Try ecotint, you can actually get it for free but not sure all ecotint shop does this. If anything, it is not too expensive to add top tint.

1. what is your RPM while your car idle at P and N?

2. CVT sound is like airplane sound.. its always consistent, windows sound changing all the time.. and intermediate off and on.

4. sit at back seat u can hear it clearly... but if u off your HU and check your tyre pressure to 32-34psi... u should be able to heard it even u are driving. and it mostly happen after 80km/h and above.

5. good mah can hear got a motor coming your way so u get extra precaution... its not safe driving out there anymore. smile.gif
