so what your saying is when coasting in gear the gas shuts off or goes below idle fuel delivery?

What I'm trying to get at is. When downshifting don't downshift rapidly do so when engine and transmission RPMs are equal when u reach this point the shifter will go to neutral easily without use of clutch

With an automatic don't manually downshift let the transmission do the shifting.

In either case give yourself enough distance to use the engine/transmission to slow down as much as possible before braking according to traffic conditions
