Yes, but it is much more efficient with the MT. The MT can achieve DFCO in any gear as long as the clutch is disengaged (meaning you don't have it pushed in) and your foot is not touching the throttle, while the AT can only achieve DFCO with a gear selection lower than D (overDrive), i.e. 3 or L.

Help me understand this.. I should begin using the 3 - L positions on my A/T Yaris to slow down? This is how to activate the DFCO?
