Can Automatic Transmission Cars Stall?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission cars can stall. Whether a car stalls is unrelated to whether it's automatic or manual transmission. Stalling occurs due to faults in the engine's fuel system or electrical system - sudden stalling is caused by electrical issues, while gradual stalling is due to fuel system problems. Automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission automatically selects the appropriate gear based on engine speed and load during driving, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear-shifting operations. Introduction to the gears in automatic transmission cars: 1. P stands for Parking gear, used when parking; 2. R stands for Reverse gear, used when reversing; 3. N stands for Neutral gear, used when starting the engine; 4. D stands for Drive gear, used when the car is moving forward; 5. L stands for Low gear, mostly used for climbing or descending hills; 6. S is equivalent to 2nd gear, only shifting between 1st and 2nd gears.
