The reason for the clicking sound when shifting to P gear without the car being fully stopped is a fault in the locking mechanism. Automatic gear shifting: Automatic transmission cars have protection and interlock mechanisms for gear shifting. If you accidentally shift from D gear to R gear or P gear while driving, it can be dangerous. However, you can freely switch between D gear and N gear, even while driving. Do not coast in neutral: Coasting in neutral with an automatic transmission car does not save fuel. Prolonged coasting in neutral can lead to insufficient oil pressure in the hydraulic lines of the automatic transmission, which not only increases friction and reduces lubrication but also damages the friction plates inside the automatic transmission.
