YOU HAVE TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO START.XracingsliX said:i wouldnt recomend you to do that because if one day u r parked on a slope and ur using first gear and u forget about it u will get fucked up and how bad is it to press the clutch when u first start the car for half a second think about it
Actually, you don't..Jumpan23 said:YOU HAVE TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO START.
i can second that...my boy had it on his teg the autostart from his alarm. i drove it one night and im used to putting it into 1st or R depending on how i park. so i put it in 1st after i parked the car like habit...and when we get back to leave...he hits the autostart, and it started lurching forward, and didn't stop because it keeps on starting and lurching forward...97CIVICoupe said:Actually, you don't..
Some guy was telling me a story about how he put autostart in one of his old cars, and he was showing it to his friend.. The car was in gear, and parked in his garage.. He hit the start button and it bucked and hit the wall, and the autostart has some sort of feature that if something goes wrong and the car doesn't start, it automatically retries in like 30 seconds or something.. So his car bucked into the wall a couple times..
bahahahahaha man thats some funny shit!! i can just imagine that poor car head butting the wall for a couple minutes!97CIVICoupe said:Actually, you don't..

i don't think u should let the whole weight of the car rest on just the gear...and i think it'll still roll forward. u'll def need to use the Ebrake in order for ur car not to roll anywhere.mclean987 said:hey does it fuk up your car if u parked on a slope and leave car in gear ? especially if e-brake isnt working ? doesnt this put wear on tranny or something ?
no you won't. if the car is pointing downhill, put it in reverse, if its pointing uphill, put it in first.KiddEng said:i don't think u should let the whole weight of the car rest on just the gear...and i think it'll still roll forward. u'll def need to use the Ebrake in order for ur car not to roll anywhere.
it shouldn't be that hard to put the switch in. its a little switch on the clutch pedal that just screws in, takes 30 seconds to put in. the thing is, i'm not sure if auto's have the wiring for the switch or not.trentdx said:i can start my car with out putting in the clutch, but that's something that happened from the
auto to manual swap, i actualy wish it did work correctly, my car has been started a few times while it was in gear
no where for it to plug into, and honestly i don't feel like bothering with it,just chillin said:it shouldn't be that hard to put the switch in. its a little switch on the clutch pedal that just screws in, takes 30 seconds to put in. the thing is, i'm not sure if auto's have the wiring for the switch or not.
would u rest the entire weight of the car on just your gears?just chillin said:no you won't. if the car is pointing downhill, put it in reverse, if its pointing uphill, put it in first.
right now i drive an 80's ford (until my civic is done) that the handbrake is broken on, i just put it in gear, no problem parking on slopes or anything.KiddEng said:would u rest the entire weight of the car on just your gears?
ok, i never did that so i guess its possible...but just the thought of ur car supported by just gears, im not too fond off...just chillin said:right now i drive an 80's ford (until my civic is done) that the handbrake is broken on, i just put it in gear, no problem parking on slopes or anything.
