shifting into P while driving..??

SouthArk370Z

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.

Hey guys I have a question, probably should start a new thread because it's such an important question but.

What would happen if I drove off a small cliff (especially when very fast) .. ??

Your acceleration would increase to 9.8 m/s2.

Please stop.

I wanted to know whether the Z's transmission would be protected or not in that situation.

Anyway it is my mistake that I didn't clarify it from the first. I'll be more careful next time. 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.

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.

That remark will be interpreted by many as "I haven't had enough. Please pile on more." Welcome to The Intertubes.

You found out ... and a lot more.

You're not from around here, are ya?

Thanks for the advice.

Actually I had googled about the topic before I put this thread, but I failed to find out exact result on Zs.

Then I think you at least learned a valuable lesson about phrasing your question. For example, it would have been a totally legitimate thread if you had said something like, "I know obviously switching from D to R at 50 mph is going to be bad for the transmission. Many transmission have sensors or other means to protect itself if the car is accidentally shifted from D to P. Does anyone know whether the Z transmission has this protection?"

Another good tip is look for a thread already on the subject and post in there. You won't get as much $hit if you make a stupid post, and a 5 year old thread revival is always better than starting a new thread
