Yes shift od with auto trans in nutral.
Subaru does not use a separate overdrive unit, if that is what you are asking. For many years, overdrive is simply another gear in the transmission.
4L60E automatic with overdrive.
There is no direct fit.There is no direct fit.
It's not recommended to use overdrive on a constant base. It stresses too much the engine as well as transmission.
if it is an automatic leave it in overdrive. the transmission knows when to change into the overdrive gear. if it is a manual listen to the motor. if you have in overdrive and it bogs down while accelerating then down shift to a lower gear.
Safe but unnecessary. The trans will be constantly shifting in and out of overdrive in traffic and will put unnecessary wear on the transmission. Save it for the freeway.
You have to use it when you are driving in mountain areas where to have high speed is not a good idea. The overdrive function does allow the transmission to switch to higher gears.
you should never tow in overdrive. that will kill your transmission. tow in regular drive or 3
Its basically just an extra gear. When you use overdrive while cruising at a high speed it lets you stay at the same speed with less RPMs, which saves gas
There are many possible meanings to the word overdrive. Many people use the word overdrive to mean going beyond normal. As far as automotive terms go, overdrive simply means that the transmission output shaft spins at a faster rate than the input shaft. So, for example, if a transmission had a .70 overdrive ratio, then the transmission output would spin one full turn for every .70 turns of the input shaft.
Overdrive is the normal position - if you are in hilly areas and find the transmission keeps shifting back and forth between overdrive and drive , you can use the overdrive cancel switch to shut off the overdrive feature and if you are towing something you also want to shut off the overdrive
Overdrive is for highway driving, which is great for gas mileage. Also, not to use overdrive when going up or down hills because it makes your transmission work harder. That's what I was told anyways.
