Question regarding automatic transmission...
Hi all,
Quick question. Sometimes when I have to work on things in the garage, for my accord since it's m/t, I would just let go of the emergency brakes, pop it to N and let it roll back so I can have some room. Now with my g35x, since it's automatic, can you pop it to N without having to start the engine? I know I can just start the car and roll it back but I've been used to m/t in the past where I just push or roll the car back to give me some leverage room to do things. It may sound kinda silly though...
Thanks...
