@LordGroyper I'm not gonna do a thing. I'm just telling you that word isn't cool dude. If you want to be ignorant and let the world see then that's on you.
1. Don't drive through water. 2. Don't shift while driving. Stop and shift. 3. Don't leave it in drive for idling. Just shift into park or turn it off. 4. Don't go around doing burnouts. 5. Change transmission fluid regularly.
number two: the whole point of the lower gear selections on an automatic is to limit the transmission from going above those gears, wouldn't situations demanding this arise while in motion?
I was a certified mechanic through college and retired as a mechanical engineering research engineer. I agree with all of the comments made in this video. In fact, he is one of the few mechanics in which I have total Faith.
Yeah, that shifting out of drive to reverse while flying down the hwy was really useful to hear. Who would have thunk it! California drivers remember that.
Tip: If you park the car on a uphill or downhill - put It In neutral, press the handbrake and then put It In P. And when you drive off that uphill or downhill park spot, put It In D or R and that’s when you reliease the parking brake so your transmission won’t have that “kick” which everyone with a older car transmissions has felt
I will say this because I’m a mechanic with 50+ years in the industry. Driving in city traffic with long wait times at each light I shift my automatic transmissions into neutral position so the transmission will free wheel and flush oil through the clutches and bands then right before the light changes I shift back into the drive position while the hole time my foot is on the brake pedal. This method speeds up the rotational shaft speed of the transmission- in turn speeds up the transmission oil pump that speeds up oil flow through the transmission to keep clean fluid running through your transmission and help lower transmission fluid temperature lower that helps keep are the parts in your transmission cooler . It also helps your engine last longer because your engine is idling under load at the stop light at low rpm for up to 1.5 minutes. A lot of parts in a engine are lubricated by secondary oil splash off and at idle rpm your oil system pressure is low and which diminishes oil splash . So that’s way I always let my engine and transmission free wheel in neutral at stop lights.
I usually have my transmission fluid changed about one a year. A lot can happen in 60K miles. As I have a pickup with a traditional drivetrain, I also have the differential serviced as well. Keeping ALL the oils and fluids fresh will definitely increase the lifespan of your vehicle.
@@erichansen7161 Erich, you are 💯% correct about the x mission. Years ago that’s how the fluid/ oil was changed. Drain the fluid, drop the pan, remove and replace the filter, replace the pan and fill er up with fresh. But, heck! Try to find a place that’ll do it nowadays! It’s almost impossible!
You can't accidentally go into Reverse by simply bumping it. It will go into Neutral by bumping it, but you have to push the button on the side (like you did when demonstrating) in order to put it into Reverse. If you are stuck in traffic, leave it in Drive. You may need to move quickly if something happens.
Both points exactly correct.izuzu trucks,volvo xc90, l200 ser landcruiser,180sx nissan coupe, ml Mercedes yep dont shift without engaging button and yes in traffic D or N because if you have to move fast taking it outta park quickly and shifti g will never work
@@youtubefan2132 nah there was this one time my dad was driving me home from the bar after I got plastered and I wanted him to put it in sport so I tried to do it myself and accidentally put it in park. The car basically went into neutral and we were able to shift it back into drive with no problems. It’s not that they don’t let you but there’s some kind of failsafe and it was a 2019 civic
Scotty, you are soo correct with the transmission changes. On my 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix I did multiple changes. I just sold the car with 223,693 miles on it and that 3.8l and transmission still ran great.
I once shifted my 1989 Toyota long bed pickup into reverse on the freeway at a normal freeway speed (Downtown L.A., non-rush hour time). It was only for a second or less, but scared the xxxx out of me as it locked the tires and shook the entire truck violently. Luckily, it didn’t slide to the side or spin out. After I popped it back into drive, it rode normally and I never had any issues with the transmission. Didn’t realize how lucky I was until this video-probably due to it being an older Toyota built in Japan.
Yes he perfect Shade Tree Back Yard Mechanic that knows it all. How I know? Look at all the junk in background he can't fix plus sound like he is Jim Beam's best friend. I would not take T-1 metal with Hammer to him to get fix he screw that up & break my hammer !!! Then its all the metals faught.. this dude a blame joke.
Robbie Hagberg want to do it on there in the lights on my phone earlier today and can do it for a second I didn't know if you were going too far and I will be on my way home now and can take a look at it on the road now and can you guys do there's a while but I didn't get a great day for it yet and I will you send it on my mind to get the lights on okay I'll see you in the number my phone number is us for
Why would you drive thru deep water to begin with . 1 ) 2:09 you don’t know how deep it is . 2 ) 4” of fast moving water has a very high hydraulic power .
Just found this channel today and I have to say I just love how enthusiastic this guy is. Shows that he not only loves cats but incredibly knowledgeable
Aerobics for your transmission. With no traffic behind you Put the transmission in low and drive around very slowly for a minute or so then shift up to the higher gear and same thing for a couple of minutes. Put it in full drive and move on. You worked out that transmission.
He made me feel like i was watching a commercial abt buying a car lol how energetic he is and how the editing was i hope ppl see what im trynna say lol
I was in a drive thru and I put my vehicle in park then the Honda crv 2001 decided to stop working. So this was before I knew I needed new spark plugs, a distributor, and I also had gas. Thankfully I was able to bring the vehicle home then to the repair place. So Scotty or anyone I'm posting about my vehicle on my channel. I'm in Canada area closer to Seattle.
It happened to my wife some years ago. While driving, a Hyundai Santa Fe V6, 2005 model, she, for an unexplainable reason, went from D to R. I panicked. Next day, Monday, I called Hyundai service and they reassured me that no harm has occurred. This incident happened in 2011. I still drive this car without having any issues.
SmashThat TV Yeah that's it, you shouldn't be able to do that, unless you press the button, you can go from drive into n but you usually don't do that.
Got my first car last week, Scotty forgive me, but it’s a 2011 Mitsubishi Endeavor. My dad came with me, and he’s a School bus mechanic and with me watching all your videos, we picked through everything, only downside is that there was a shudder after I signed the paperwork…but I went home and looked up the most common cause of shudder. I want to say thanks to that random commenter who owned two of the Endeavors that lasted to 300,000 miles that he just changed the ATF and its fixed because that’s what we did and it worked, runs and works great. So definitely change the ATF fluid regularly
Also, maintenance is important, flushing and changing your filter every 30,000 miles or so, just replaced tranny in my '92 Toyota Camry after 225,000 miles. last summer. Check for leaks, replaced 7 seals about 11,12 years ago. No problems with that, depends on the quality of vehicle too sometimes
When I was a kid, one of my friend's wanted me to come over to check out his Dad's new Car, his Dad's old Car had a three speed manual column shift, a "three on the tree", so, I've gone over and his Dad has offered to take us for a "spin" up the road, so we've piled in all chuffed and eager to go, taking off was impressive, his Dad really gave the thing some "curry", a half a mile and god all mighty explosion of gearbox tearing itself to pieces down the road later, and his Dad's manic grinning has dissolved into sobs of anguish as he's trying to come to terms with having mistakenly shifted gears on his new Tri-matic column shift...... My friend and I quietly got out and walked back home, his Dad was never the same....
I treat Park like Neutral on a manual transmission and have had several owners tell me to stop doing that while driving their cars because they were obviously clueless as to how they work. Everything this guy said was spot on.
Hello Scotty, I live in opposite site of where you live in this planet. Its a country beside India name Bangladesh. I should have found you earlier to support many queries when i had very limited knowledge of automobile. As you mentioned in your numerous video lot of people in automobile sector try to rip us due to limited knowledge. I am enjoying your every video. Thanks for giving this support to the whole world automobile user and not only to your country people. Its a great help to the whole society and you will be remembered by heart for many years, Thanks again.
Cheers Scott for great advice and I got a 1995 Nissan Navara D21 with original auto gearbox and engine with 427967kms on clock and still works amazingly
I have a great father, but he grew up in a major city. I grew up in a small city, came to in a megapolis, and now live in a small town on the edge of being a very rural area. There are things he knows I dont. There's things I know he doesn't. I'm still learning from my father. These days he's also learning from me. He has a lot to teach me about taxs. I have a lot to teach him about hunting. This is all to say - we are not all things at all times. We all have areas of knowledge and areas of ignorance.
Shifting from drive to reverse is a common myth. Old automatics used to actually do it and destroy the transmission, new ones wont change gears at all above a certain speed to not cause damage
The celicas fan is kicking on - flushing out the universal yellow fluid and using the red unplugged the system and the cooling system is working like new .. this dang car hugs the road .. she's a dream and I see why you love the 94 celica Scotty .. thank you !
I had a friend who thought he was funny by putting my car into N while driving. On the highway we went too far are put it into Reverse... the sound made me tear up in my pants
I had a 2014 F150 with the coyote motor and I was in a hurry backing out of the driveway one time and while it was in reverse till I put it in drive and the whole truck shut off it was a safety feature. I was only going 3 to 4 miles an hour in reverse but still pretty cool
Yep that's what my buddy's x-gf did, pretty much. Destroyed the reverse completely. all it did was go clik clik clik clik while we pushed it out the drive way every time! Otherwise fine.
Scotty you are the reason I am going to be a mechanic.. I am Aware of the troubles I am getting into although my ultimate goal is to reach motorsports heights !
Girl in my high school blew her transmission after ripping it into reverse in a drive thru because she entered too fast. She told us (the class) that it was because she forgot she had brakes. That Taco Bell musta been good tho
Honestly how does one obtain a driver's license and forget that they have brakes? What if she had seen a pedestrian and "forgot about brakes". Here in Europe we have a bunch of dumb drivers but this takes the crown for me.
@@TreeHugger27 Some say they have seen the brakes but it is unclear if they actually exist or is it just a myth. Either way reverse slamming is superior either way, i'm pretty sure aliens do it too on their faster than light spaceships.
These games were reaching me wrong, teaching me to go to midnight clubs, do burnouts, and teaching me to have a need for speed, now I underground. Thanks boss
1.) Do not drive through deep water 2.) Do not go from drive to reverse while car is in motion 3.) Do not leave it in drive while idling for a long time 4.) Do not do burnouts a lot 5.)Change transmission fluid every # miles - maintenance
1:01 - thank you for basically telling me to stop driving thru that pool of water in the drive thru at work 1:28 - somebody that I had a thing with asked me “what happens if I pull this?” and put her hand on the eBrake. Never spoke to her again after that 3:41 - thank you dude
Very interesting n informative upload. Will keep that in mind dealing with auto trans. Kudos. New subscriber because of this vid. Anticipating ur next vid. Peace
A feature I appreciate from Subaru autos is that the gear lever can slide between drive and neutral without pushing down the button, but not into reverse. Comes in handy when you're coasting through traffic.
You're face is handy in traffic. I see it and think oh there's that guy factory setting prevented from switching into reverse going 80 on the highway down the mountain.

The host sounds like he played this game during the rehearsal
Why would you drive thru deep water to begin with . 1 ) 2:09 you don’t know how deep it is . 2 ) 4” of fast moving water has a very high hydraulic power .
Scotty you’re an amazing human being love watching your videos keep up the good work and helping others with your knowledge and wisdom
I FEEL LIKE THIS IS WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE WHEN YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE TALKING IN CAPSLOCK
YOU DESTROYED MY TRANSMISSION
I KNOW RIGHT ITS SOO LOUD

Just found this channel today and I have to say I just love how enthusiastic this guy is. Shows that he not only loves cats but incredibly knowledgeable
Aerobics for your transmission. With no traffic behind you Put the transmission in low and drive around very slowly for a minute or so then shift up to the higher gear and same thing for a couple of minutes. Put it in full drive and move on. You worked out that transmission.
DON'T EVEN DRIVE YOUR CAR
IT WILL RUIN YOUR TRANSMISSION😂🤣😆😅
Tip no 3: DO NOT put the car into ‘r’ which stands for ‘ruin the transmission’
E Hunch And when you sit with your shifter in D which we all know means DESTROY THE TRANSMISSION
stands for RACE mode
R stands for destRoy the transmission
I found this so funny
He made me feel like i was watching a commercial abt buying a car lol how energetic he is and how the editing was i hope ppl see what im trynna say lol
0:40 "Into the transmition!!"
when someone has that much energy in their voice while explaining something i know theyre an expert
This is why I drive a manual, so I can wreck my transmission in funner cheaper ways.
Yes!!!

Do you not know how to drive?
@@beedoubleu547 Oh I know how to drive, but 200+ degree temps arent good on your trans buddy
Money shift babyyy!
Scotty: Don't do burnouts!
Challenger and Charger owners: Yeah okay
Line Lock
Exactly
Yea don’t trip
Aren't there exceptions like for drag racing Demons?
also camaro owners... i would neverrrrr.. totally nottttt
Who else was not looking for car tips but this showed up in the suggested videos and you said 🤷🏼♂️
thanks for being you scotty, i love the motivation and enthusiasum you put into your videos. truly brings out the true side of loving cars !!!

I was in a drive thru and I put my vehicle in park then the Honda crv 2001 decided to stop working.
So this was before I knew I needed new spark plugs, a distributor, and I also had gas. Thankfully I was able to bring the vehicle home then to the repair place. So Scotty or anyone I'm posting about my vehicle on my channel. I'm in Canada area closer to Seattle.
"Dont do burnouts all the time", proceeds to smokeout the entire road 😂😂 This mans a G
I took a sip of coffee in my car, it destroyed my transmission.
GODD DAMNNN SO FUCKIN FUNNY!!!!!!!shift1111
K Kabaam I like this one
If you can accidentally push your trans from drive to reverse, you already have a transmission problem.
SmashThat TV
Exactly what I thought.
It happened to my wife some years ago. While driving, a Hyundai Santa Fe V6, 2005 model, she, for an unexplainable reason, went from D to R. I panicked. Next day, Monday, I called Hyundai service and they reassured me that no harm has occurred. This incident happened in 2011. I still drive this car without having any issues.
Thought the same thing because you still have to to hold the side button down to shift from neutral to reverse.
Modern transmissions won't go into R until a very low speed. There's some kind of safety lockout based on how fast the output shaft is spinning.
SmashThat TV
Yeah that's it, you shouldn't be able to do that, unless you press the button, you can go from drive into n but you usually don't do that.
Got my first car last week, Scotty forgive me, but it’s a 2011 Mitsubishi Endeavor. My dad came with me, and he’s a School bus mechanic and with me watching all your videos, we picked through everything, only downside is that there was a shudder after I signed the paperwork…but I went home and looked up the most common cause of shudder. I want to say thanks to that random commenter who owned two of the Endeavors that lasted to 300,000 miles that he just changed the ATF and its fixed because that’s what we did and it worked, runs and works great. So definitely change the ATF fluid regularly
Does anyone else want to go through his garage id bet he's got some GEMS in there for every car on the planet LOL
D- is for Day
N- is for Night
Use them accordingly or you will ruin your transmission.
Also don't forget to use R for rocket mode if you're going over 60mph
I thought they stood for 'Drink' and 'Nuggets'.
D-Day mode R-race mode
R is for race!
Don't forget 2 = 2step🤣
So what you’re saying is I can drive my manual into a lake? Nice!
I know you're joking but I think what hes saying is to be careful on flooded roadways.
😂😭🤣
LMFAO just make sure your vent line stays above the water level. 'Cause manuals have them, too 😂😂🙄
Manual's float and drive in water.
This guy is like an epic uncle I've never met.
Also, maintenance is important, flushing and changing your filter every 30,000 miles or so, just replaced tranny in my '92 Toyota Camry after 225,000 miles. last summer. Check for leaks, replaced 7 seals about 11,12 years ago. No problems with that, depends on the quality of vehicle too sometimes
When I was a kid, one of my friend's wanted me to come over to check out his Dad's new Car, his Dad's old Car had a three speed manual column shift, a "three on the tree", so, I've gone over and his Dad has offered to take us for a "spin" up the road, so we've piled in all chuffed and eager to go, taking off was impressive, his Dad really gave the thing some "curry", a half a mile and god all mighty explosion of gearbox tearing itself to pieces down the road later, and his Dad's manic grinning has dissolved into sobs of anguish as he's trying to come to terms with having mistakenly shifted gears on his new Tri-matic column shift......
My friend and I quietly got out and walked back home, his Dad was never the same....
I did a burnout on my bicycle. Now I need a transmission.
I blew a whole drive line on my motorized bicycle before
I can ride a wheelie on my unicycle
🤣
John Guilbert your lucky it didn’t overheat your transmission!
You are joking. You are best with a manual transmission !
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the word “Transmission” this much in my life...
Ikr, it's starting to sound funny.
But what about the autobots? They have a whole movie called "Transmissions"🕵️♂️
At least he didn't call it a tranny
@@TheCybertron86 or Johnny Tran

I treat Park like Neutral on a manual transmission and have had several owners tell me to stop doing that while driving their cars because they were obviously clueless as to how they work. Everything this guy said was spot on.
Park on an auto is the same as neutral on an auto also except the parking sprag
John Lennon didn’t die, he became a mechanic
Hello Scotty, I live in opposite site of where you live in this planet. Its a country beside India name Bangladesh. I should have found you earlier to support many queries when i had very limited knowledge of automobile. As you mentioned in your numerous video lot of people in automobile sector try to rip us due to limited knowledge. I am enjoying your every video. Thanks for giving this support to the whole world automobile user and not only to your country people. Its a great help to the whole society and you will be remembered by heart for many years, Thanks again.
What a nice comment, Mr. Bhattacharjee.
I'm sending warm energies your way from the USA. :)

Very good 👍 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I wouldn't mind having him as that uncle with the cool cars in the drive way.
I have a great father, but he grew up in a major city. I grew up in a small city, came to in a megapolis, and now live in a small town on the edge of being a very rural area. There are things he knows I dont. There's things I know he doesn't. I'm still learning from my father. These days he's also learning from me. He has a lot to teach me about taxs. I have a lot to teach him about hunting. This is all to say - we are not all things at all times. We all have areas of knowledge and areas of ignorance.
Shifting from drive to reverse is a common myth. Old automatics used to actually do it and destroy the transmission, new ones wont change gears at all above a certain speed to not cause damage
The celicas fan is kicking on - flushing out the universal yellow fluid and using the red unplugged the system and the cooling system is working like new .. this dang car hugs the road .. she's a dream and I see why you love the 94 celica Scotty .. thank you !
DO NOT LISTEN TO THE INTRO! I revved up my engine and it destroyed my transmission.
Blows your dam car up
Thumbnail: Never put your car in drive
That's what I thought too and it's why I clicked
IT WILL DESTROY TRANSMISSION
Lmao then push the car
Right!!
Marshall Reactions wrong
I had a friend who thought he was funny by putting my car into N while driving. On the highway we went too far are put it into Reverse... the sound made me tear up in my pants
I had a 2014 F150 with the coyote motor and I was in a hurry backing out of the driveway one time and while it was in reverse till I put it in drive and the whole truck shut off it was a safety feature. I was only going 3 to 4 miles an hour in reverse but still pretty cool
Dang , really wanted to slam it from drive to reverse and back while doing 100 .
That's how I've always done it. He didn't say not to slam it from reverse into drive though!!!!
Thomas Fletcher hey don’t do that, you will most likely destroy the transmission!!!
@@lukewenzel8085 forehead slap
Lol
Yep that's what my buddy's x-gf did, pretty much. Destroyed the reverse completely. all it did was go clik clik clik clik while we pushed it out the drive way every time! Otherwise fine.
Did two of the 5 things in moms car as teenager.. sorry momma
NickPDX22 let me guess burnouts and switching from drive to reverse
Okie Dokie - mmmmaaaybe 😏
Ok stfu

Scotty your videos have so much value ... Thank you Sir !!!!!
Don't watch this video because it will DESTROY THE TRANSMISSION
CRIZ OFFICIAL hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂
Girl in my high school blew her transmission after ripping it into reverse in a drive thru because she entered too fast. She told us (the class) that it was because she forgot she had brakes. That Taco Bell musta been good tho
Honestly how does one obtain a driver's license and forget that they have brakes?
What if she had seen a pedestrian and "forgot about brakes".
Here in Europe we have a bunch of dumb drivers but this takes the crown for me.
@@lazar2175 Miami: let me introduce myself
wait cars have brakes?!?!
@@TreeHugger27 Some say they have seen the brakes but it is unclear if they actually exist or is it just a myth.
Either way reverse slamming is superior either way, i'm pretty sure aliens do it too on their faster than light spaceships.
You must have gone to high school recently, the weed strains have only gotten to the "forget about brakes while driving" level in the last few years.
These games were reaching me wrong, teaching me to go to midnight clubs, do burnouts, and teaching me to have a need for speed, now I underground. Thanks boss
Her backing band when she left the Cali club scene later became The Eagles
1.) Do not drive through deep water
2.) Do not go from drive to reverse while car is in motion
3.) Do not leave it in drive while idling for a long time
4.) Do not do burnouts a lot
5.)Change transmission fluid every # miles - maintenance
Thank you
Thank you.
Thank you Scotty.
Well my car is screwed
Well good thing i only did one of this once and never doing it again
Dont know why I came across this video, but i love this guy’s personality

They are addicting because of all the knowledge Scotty shares.
Welcome to the jungle
first time here. Scotty is great but he should cull the morons.
Glad you're back tommy we missed you
1:01 - thank you for basically telling me to stop driving thru that pool of water in the drive thru at work
1:28 - somebody that I had a thing with asked me “what happens if I pull this?” and put her hand on the eBrake. Never spoke to her again after that
3:41 - thank you dude
Dont buy an automatic car because it will destroy your TRANSMISSION
When trying to pass on the freeway, shift to P for passing

I agree with you on the old saying .. but what does your comment about renting a car has to do with this video 🤔 .. lol
Look up the turo app. . .then reread his comment 😂
Then why you put it out there?
hi yall did u kick his ass lol.
I don't let anyone drive my car. They get irritated etc but yeah nah I don't give a shit you're not taking my car.
A feature I appreciate from Subaru autos is that the gear lever can slide between drive and neutral without pushing down the button, but not into reverse. Comes in handy when you're coasting through traffic.
You're face is handy in traffic. I see it and think oh there's that guy factory setting prevented from switching into reverse going 80 on the highway down the mountain.
Thank you Scotty, l enjoy & appreciate your good advice videos more & more!
