C43 AMG with a tune up
Different opinions about leaving gearstick in N or D at traffic red light?
Found this thread about tranny left in neutral or drive at stop light.
There are several opinions about what is correct and what is not leaving stick in gear or not?
What do you do with your C36 or C43?
Do you leave the stick in N or D?
I have a bad habit of putting the stick in neutral at red light.
Maybe I should reconsider this behavior?
According to link put it in Neutral seems to slip and wear the clutches?
Don't know what is accurrate information for our electronic controlled 722.631 transmissions?

I leave mine in D, not unless it's going to be a long stop in which case I'll place it in P and turn the engine off.
