If the engine isn't turning, the transmission is not receiving lubrication, regardless of what the ignition switch is set to. It's what the input shaft of the transmission is doing that matters. You'll have to do without EOC.

There are other Matrices in the Garage listing - and start one for yours, by the way - but unfortunately most of their owners are not actively participating. And I see that they tend to be cellar dwellers. It's a nippy tall hatchback, I'm certain it can do better than the low-30s, high-20s I'm seeing.
