Ok, after spending a good hour and a half browsing the aod posts I have a simple question.
In normal driving, does it harm the tranny to: Start out in "D", allowing it to shift into 2nd gear, then manually shift back to "L" so it'll hold a bit longer? I suppose this isn't much different than the 1-d-1 shuffle but I'm not doing this at WOT. I know I can force a downshift by giving it more gas but that actually seems harder on the car and it still shifts right back into 3rd anyway.
