My Civic is (unfortunately) an automatic - first one I've owned.

Is it hard on an auto tranny to put it into neutral to coast for a bit then put it back in drive? And does it matter how fast you're going?

Obvisouly I don't want to "Try it and let us know!".

I don't know much about that type of stuff so any help is appreciated.
