zero_gravity Registered Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Posts: 113	could someone explain DFCO and coasting to me? sounds dumb, but i have yet to find much detailed info on DFCO mainly and when to use as opposed to neutral coasting. it was my understanding that the ECU will go into DFCO under higher rpm coasting...i.e. engine braking. any truth to this? what exactly triggers DFCO? when should i try to educe DFCO and when should i just neutral coast? i'm mostly a neutral coaster for now, but the more mpg's the better btw i'm driving a '04 hyundai accent 5 spd. manual. __________________
