I'd say 1 and 2........and 3, if 1 and 2 while doing 3
(confused myself there for a sec). Seriously, none of the following will hurt your tranny unless you do it repetetively, beating on your car endlessly.

Okay folks. We are getting more posts to the Poll out at the CL Forum, but not enough yet.
As it stands, leaving it in Auto mode (D5/D4) is showing more failures so far. Of course that could be due to more people driving that way.
