changed my mind about neutral logic
I monitor my engine and transmission with CVTz50, here is what I have learned about neutral idle logic with the cvt. When I am at a traffic light the engine uses either .1 or .2 gallons per hour. Never thought about it to much until today. I started looking at the information with neural idle logic on and with it off. When I come to a stop and don't creep up at all (neutral logic is on, or in use, you know what i mean) the app says i'm using .1Gal/H and if I creep forward it goes back into gear and shows .2Gal/H. I mean think about it, that's twice as much gas being used when stopped. Is this going to get you way better gas mileage in the city, probably not, but it is something to think about when driving. I have definitely changed my habits when I come to a stop, I now just try to stay still and not creep forward. You can also just put it in neutral, does the same thing but you might be putting more wear on your trans by doing that. Not fully certain of that but it would make sense. If you are at a really long light or a train crossing and you did creep forward, you might as well just put in it in neutral, not for every stop ofc. I also noticed it doesn't make that big of a difference when you have bigger power draw items on like the headlights and aircon. When I have the music turned up quite far and the headlights + fog lights, it just stays at .2Gal/H when in neutral.
