@goteammazda: Slapping your shifter from reverse to drive while your car is still rolling backward is a quick way to cause massive internal damage to your transmission. The spinning transmission shafts are absolutely not ready to instantly change direction, and forcing them to do it creates massive wear and tear. Drop a comment below if you are guilty of doing this, and remember to protect your transmission by stopping fully next time! #transmission #carcare #mechanictips #transmissionrepair #automotivetech
Always wait at least 35-40 minutes between shifting from reverse to drive.

I was taught to fully stop before shifting by my dad before I was even allowed to drive.

I don’t consider it shifting when it’s an automatic and people that drive stick know that if you throw it in reverse, you’re gonna get a good amount of glitter 🤣

does this count to a manual?
shifting from reverse->wait 2 secs while still moving back using momentum -> then going into 1st to drive?
