cn-

Shifting in and out of gear at a light will cause more wear to the clutch packs in your trans because they are engaging/disengaging while leaving the trans in drive the clutches remain engaged. The torque converter allows the 'slippage' that lets the car idle in gear while stopped. The clutch packs are engaged/released only while engaging a gear or during shifts. The trans is designed to remain in gear at brief stops (a few minutes at a time) and shifting to neutral would cause accelerated wear. The drain plug for the trans is a 24mm hex. Replace the crush washer when re-installing the plug. It is the same as the engine crush washer- P/N 977751.
