Shifting (A/T)

[Spades]

Ok fine. I am talking out of my ass. You are right I am wrong. I still dont belive you. Why? Because the first car I had was a automatic transmission, and I was 16 and thought I was speed racer and shifted it like it was a manual. 30k miles later it lost second gear from the teeth comming off the sun gear. What I explained about the sun gear was exactly what happened to my car. So, I asked several transmission shops what would have caused this and they told me manually shifting the car is what did it.

The same thing has happened to two other people I know. I will not debate this subject any longer. If you guys want to yell and holler at me, by all means do it, I was just trying to save you from a mistake I made when I was young and foolish. By all means, if you are going to be assholes, please, F--k up your cars, and IF something does happen to your transmissions, fair warning, I am going to laugh my ass off.

P.S. in that manual you posted for me to look at, did you notice that it says never to shift gears up with your foot on the gas pedal? Wow, so the manufacturer says that you aren't supposed to do that...so, in taking your foot off the gas pedal so you can shift, you are telling me it is faster to shift in a corner than letting the slusbox shift on its own? Nice.
