Hi, new owner of a c6 tfsi avant.
Never owned an auto before so after some opinions please.

Whats the most mechanically friendly way for the gearbox while waiting in traffic?? Put in 'N' or 'P' or just hold brake in 'D' ?!

Any help appreciated!

well today, i have been using 'N' when you know you are stationary for a bit, think thats the habit im going to learn.

Also...... Can you shift from 'D' to 'S' while moving? I had a bwm try it on and wanted the higher revs but unsure if this is ok?
