Larry: Myths are also frequent with professional mechanics.
last week, I was told by a mechanic with 30 years experience that I should not park my car so I have to back-up in the morning instead of first going forward. He said: Always park your car facing the street in your diveway.The transmission lubrication system does not allow for any oil circulation in the transmission in reverse gear. Oil will only circulate when the car is in a foward gear. Yyeeaahh.
