"The difference is that you most likely drive around in "D" - overdrive - the entire time. When your AT is in that setting it will always drop into OD at about 2,000 RPM when you are "coasting" with your foot off the throttle. That's a fair amount of fuel it's using. In order to engage DFCO you'd need to be in gear 3 or lower".


so, i should shift to the third gear and then coast? is this safe to do in the middle of driving?
