Why would the back wheels lock up on a manual transmission 86 camaro?
Answer why would the back wheels lock upTwo possible reasons: 1. The (older) manual transmission is stuck between gears. This happened to me once on a hill. With the car wanting to go downhill in reverse there was torque on the transmission and this held the manual transmission in that messed-up position. I could not even put my car in to neutral to coast out of the street. The tow truck operator that picked me up said that if I had had someone push the car slightly forward I could have gotten the tranmission into neutral.2. The back (drum) brakes were very recently rebuild and were assembled in reverse; they tightened up every time the brakes were used until they locked.
Why does your 2012 Ford Focus accelerate when hitting the brakes to stop?
The 2012 Ford Focus has a dual-clutch automatic transmission - this is basically a manual transmission that shifts automatically (more efficient, but also much different from your modern day automatic transmission). Because of this, as you hit the breaks, the car doesn't really coast in neutral - it downshifts through every gear. I myself have a 2012 Ford Focus. The transmission needs about 500-1000 miles to break-in the clutch. In addition, the transmission has fuzzy logic that adapts to your style of driving. You will notice that after that first 1000 miles or so, this won't be as noticeable. -Nick

What are the pros and cons of auto transmission?
Pros: Ease of use Cons: Not as reliable, less efficient, more costly to repair, requires more servicing, can't bump start vehicle if battery is dead, harmful to coast in neutral then put into gear. That's just what came off the top of my head. I'm sure I'll think of more with a little bit of time.

How much does a transmission coast for a BMW 325i?
Just got my quoted today (7-Feb-11). I have a 2004 325i with 93000 miles, transmission broke yesterday :-(. According to my mechanic, for a new BMW transmission it's about $5,000 and can be upto $6,000 including labor. However, the mechanic bought a crashed BMW last month with a year old transmission that he will replace for me for $2880. Hopefully, this new transmission will last me another 93K miles.
