Greeting folks,
I have a couple of questions. Due to my selling my 2011 VW Jetta sportwagen TDI back to VW due to it having the TDI diesel engine I am again looking to purchase a car that will get similar fuel mileage. I have for a number of years been coasting all over the country due to my jetta having a 6 spd manual transmission. Several of the VW's I am looking at have the 6 spd automatic transmissions.
My question is can I operate this VW automatic in the same manner I did with the manual ? ? ? Will I be able to go to neutral going down the hill and then drop back in to drive as my speed drops ? I'm trying to find a replacement with the manual but they are a bit scarce. I want to do what ever I can to try to keep getting my 50 to 54 mpg over the road. Thanks in advance for answering my questions.
Have fun,
buckshot. P.S. I am back to work on my Nissan diesel powered Sonoma.
Looking forward to getting 38 mpg with the Sonoma.
