Is shifting to neutral with an automatic transmission and coasting down hills detrimental to the car's engine and transmission?

This is not something I would recommend you do. It may do no harm and yet it may very well cause a build up of pressure and transmission problems. It will not hurt the engine at all, but I would not do this for fear of hurting the transmission. I am not sure if it will hurt or not, so until you know for sure, do not do it. My guess is that this may do harm. A new transmission can be very expensive.
