It's ok. In D, the torque converter kept spinning fluid around the GB effectively cooling it down. In N, fluid will heat up.

err... It's the other way around la... doh.gif

The fluid circulate as long as the engine is running ler... It's hotter in D

All auto transmission cars will disconnect the clutch/ torque convertor once it detects it is completely stopped and the brake is still pressed. Keep changing between n and d damages the gearbox faster than just pressing on the brake pedal.
I have friends driving same car where 1 will also change to n while waiting while the other just pressed on the brake. In the end the one who keeps changing to n need to change gearbox earlier.

u sure that's not a typo error...

The torque converter is directly bolted to the engine flywheel, there is no such thing as disconnected, unless you're removing the engine / gearbox from the car.

This discussion will bring to a very long and many pages yet don't have concrete answer. There are always got 2 school of thought,the pro N and the Pro D .

There's a simple solution.

Long stop put to N
short stop just put in D...

How long you decide la.. For me it's 30 seconds or so.

Can close thread.
