Good day everyone!
My car broke some time ago (RIP crankshaft) and I don't think I can fix it on time this weekend as we are goin to travel. My brother in law agreed to lend me his car (A Mexican Chevy Optra), but can't go to his house until the weekend. I have always used stick since I learned to drive on my grandpa's Sakura.
In short:
What does the D does? Why is there a 1 on the stick? When does the 2 come to use? Do I have to put it on P every time I brake on a stoplight? How do I "shift" speeds? And other questions that I may have but can't remember.
I could ask a friend to experience beforehand a car and how to drive it but I haven't come with one that owns an AT.
The only thing I know well is that you can't really rev down the engine by shifting down as in a MT car. Sorry for the dumb questions, I really don't know how to drive an AT an I feel dumb for that.
Thank you in advance!
