I leave mine in gear like I would any manual gearbox car, added saftey on handbrake.AUH M5 said:Hi guys,
I was wondering if you're supposed to leave the transmission in gear when you switch the car off or do you leave it in neutral?
There is not mention of this in the manual.
Thanks
Very wrong. My M5 rolled away when I parked it for lunch today in N. Thank goodness I was quick enough to jump back in and pull the handbrack on. Silly me.Ashok Arora said:I thought the car automatically engages a gear even if you switch off in N to stop you rolling down a hill. Am I wrong in assuming this?
I just read the manual and your are 100% correct.Spiroman said:The SMG system likes you to shut it down with a gear engaged and start it up in neutral. Works every time!
