Alchemist Forums Junkie Location: Sydney Registered: January 2003	Re: Compression braking Thu, 06 November 2003 07:38 When learning to drive my instructor & parents encourgaed this "compression braking". To be honest in my day to day driving the car doesn't see 4500RPM all that much(if at all), I always downshift when braking, about 2000RPM, to me it feels like a more controlled stop, your using the engine and the brakes. All that said if you were working in the higher rev ranges I reckon its gotta be bad for your car(for the above listed reasons), but at loe RPM, ie 2000 I(non-mechanically) cant see a problem.
