Eff'ed up transmission

[Init2winit]

Yes it's automatic.

I was trying out a fuel saving technique.
You get up your rpms - shut off the engine and coast pretty much.
I took it up to 3000 rpm in third. then shut off the engine as i start up this little hill.
I was in drive for some reason so i go to shift back into third but my shifter slips into first. my car is old and shoddy - but yeah - it wasn't s'pposed to be in first.

So now my transmission is wrecked - yes i know i'm an idiot. i just wanna get it fixed.
A push in the right direction is all i need.

Never under any circumstances should you put an automatic transmission in neutral, or shut off the engine while driving. You just found out first hand what can happen.

x2 sometimes lessons have to learned the hard way, just cause you can do that in a manual trans car doesnt mean you can do it in an auto
