Quick Question about tranny.
Leaving work I put the keys in the ignition and let it sit for about 20 seconds without starting it. I heard from a forum to let it sit for a little bit before starting the engine to help something (can't really remember what). Anyway my music was on and I forgot the car was not on. I stepped on brake and put it in reverse. It rolled about 3 to 4 inches with my foot above the brake then I hit brake to stop because I realized it was not started. I started her up and continued. It drove fine afterwards. If I messed something up it would make a noise from tranny right? I also heard that messed up trannies rev high rpm's and the slow movement of the car doesnt match the rpm's. I just wanted to know if I may have messed something up or is what I did like putting a manual in nuetral when not started? It would make a noise or do the high rpm thing while driving if it was messed up right?
Sorry for such long post. THANKS a sh it ton everyone.

It's normal for a car to roll a couple inches in gear. Nothing to worry about. Even if you didn't hit the brakes, the car would have stopped rolling on its own.

Re: Quick Question about tranny.
alright good deal. thanks a lot. Wow 4 wheel disc brakes are clutch. I almost rear ended an older truck with a steel bumper from an instant stop on the interstate. brakes stopped from 45 to 50 mph to 0 in about 30 to 50 feet. Thank goodness, I just got this car I can't imagine wreckin her
