Driving with a bad transmission speed sensor is not advisable, as it can lead to erratic shifting, poor acceleration, and even potential damage to the transmission. Additionally, it may affect your vehicle's ability to gauge speed accurately, which can pose safety risks. If you suspect the sensor is malfunctioning, it’s best to have it inspected and repaired by a professional mechanic to ensure safe driving conditions.

What is a transmission position?

A transmission position refers to the specific gear or setting in a vehicle's transmission system that determines how power from the engine is delivered to the wheels. Common positions include "Park," "Reverse," "Neutral," and various drive gears (e.g., Drive, Low). Each position affects the vehicle's speed, acceleration, and maneuverability. Understanding transmission positions is crucial for safe driving and proper vehicle operation.

How can you tell if your car has overdrive?

The top gear on the transmission will be marked 'OD' usually. If you have more than a three speed automatic or four speed manual transmission, it's a pretty safe assumption that you do.
