Re: When to and not to use Neutral on an Auto

I've coasted in Neutral down hills a couple times. It seems like it makes a little sense to blip the throttle before putting it back in drive though. If my engine normally does 2400 RPMS at 60 MPH in Drive and I'm doing 60 downhill in Neutral, then I blip the throttle to around 2400 right before I put it back in drive. It seems to me that this would decrease wear, but I could be wrong.
