Using DFCO to increase your MPG - Toyota Yaris Forums

i have a early 2007 automatic yaris sedan, manufactured in june 2006. can anyone explain what this means, i copied it from the first page of this thread:

"Early versions pf the AT (Including ones sold in the U.S. until around January 2007) can only achieve DFCO with a gear selection lower than (D)rive, i.e. 3 or L, but since half way through the 2007 model year the AT can achieve DFCO in all gears.."

does this mean when i drive around in D that i am never in dfco mode, or does it mean that the dfco only kicks in as the vehicle slows down coasting in a lower gear than D (even though my shifter is still in D)? thanks
