Ok Im used to driving stick shift but my current Celica is an Auto. well my friends and dad are telling me that driving in city driving with the Over Drive on is bad for the car? And that i should only turn it on over 50mph? im still unsure about this as other friends of mine always drive with their Over Drive on. Does anyone know for sure about this?

its not meant to go from L -> 2 -> D -> OD

ive had OD off on all gears and KILLED civics, integras when they were packin a lot more hp.
one thing i dont reccomend doing on an auto transmission is gassing it in neutral and then putting it in gear.
