QUOTE(Esky @ Jun 5 2008, 01:37 PM) Sometimes I find that using an auto tranny in traffic jams is also very tiring as I need to press the foot brake all the time, especially in heavy jams. In a manual tranny, at least you can free gear and not have to depress the clutch all the time. And not forgetting that auto tranny cars have much faster brake pad wear & shorter brake bulb life too! heheh QUOTE(bysquashy @ Jun 5 2008, 01:52 PM) It means that you are driving it wrongly  i second post by esky. how to drive auto properly in jam?i dont like pressing the brake holding the car still.i usually change to N and roll to stop.of cos thats my sister's car.my car manual

QUOTE(finkl1 @ Apr 27 2009, 07:47 PM) I have driven in Europe with the following cars that were unseen here... Honda CRV manual. Definate enjoyment driving the car , pick up , traffic was ok still...and seriously drinks LESS petrol that the Auto ones here.... 550km+ full tank... Audi 1.8T manual. Awesome pick up and acceleration and guess what?...it still saves petrol more than the auto ones here. 680km with ease on full tank. Honda Civic manual 2004 batch...also another awesome car to drive under manual. 600km+ full tank. Saab...turbo. This one..craps...under manual..drinks petrol like an auto. 480km petrol goes E. so...I don't really know WHY we are selling spots for auto ONLY. It's pretty stupid. bcause here ppl buy cars just for going to work and back everyday.life in a ratrace.no time or dont bother to appreciate driving fun
