I'm a newbie AT owner. Been driving a MT since 1998. In an AT, if I press on the brakes with the vehicle still in motion, I normally return from D to N in preparation to stop. Now the problem is, I sometimes overshift to R but with my feet still pressing on the brakes. Will this damage my transmission? In comparison to a MT where you hear a craking sound if you mistakenly shift gear, at least I haven't heard of any. Correct me if I am wrong. In an AT, if I press on the brakes, this is also equivalent to pressing on the clutch in the case of an MT, wherein the effect is the gears are temporarily disengaged?
