i park in first leave it in first then pull into neutural when starting, simply because i know my foots coming off the clutch right away to adjust seat, mirrors, cd player, let warm up ect. and its bad for the throwout bearing to have the clutch depresed longer than in and out.

really?
at any intersection when i stop at the light i press the clutch to pop into neutral and just leave my foot on the clutch till i shift back into first...
is this hurting my car?

yes if your pressing on the clutch and holding it to the floor, no if your foot is just laying on it...altho a clutch peddle is NOT a footrest lol thats what the dead peddle is for
