nope, no damage unless you let go of the brake pedal without noticing and crashing into the car infront.
the torque converter continues to spin but nothing is worn as only hydraulic fluid is being pumped around causing no wear
actually pushing to D and N often causes more damage as the clutch packs and valve body is used a lot more, having to switch constantly from D to N defeats te purpose of a auto gearbox.
just keep enough pressure on the brake pedal

QUOTE(Slyp @ Dec 28 2013, 09:52 PM) thanks for the reply and info, i always thought this would damage the engine and maybe consuming more petrol when not switching to N gear while the car is not moving because before that i was driving an old saga and the car vibrates vigorously while car is not moving and still on D gear. it can't consume any more than what the idle setting is allowing, if the engine mounting is broken it will also vibrate like hell |

QUOTE(wayfeel @ Dec 28 2013, 11:06 PM) I really didnt know that... INM I heard CVT is not good if brake in Gear D....as well as DSG? True? I believe quite so for CVT....since they are not EXACTLY conventional AT But interesting topic though...since is related to good caring of the sensitive and 2nd most expensive component of the car after engine doesn't matter what transmission, if they use torque converter which cvt uses, it's still oil that just circulating, it won't heat up anymore than usual operation as there is coolers that take care of that |

QUOTE(Slyp @ Dec 30 2013, 11:32 AM) Appreciate all of your replies here but my question is whether or not by doing so will damage the engine or gearbox, not asking whether should I put to N or just leave it at D while car is stopping. i stick by my stand, no, the gearbox and engine are not operating in abnormal condition hence no damage will occur |
