1. depends on car but you should be able to feel when is good. So really whatever feels right for you.
2. not always. If the engine is labouring (too low revs for a given situation) that is not good for the engine. It will shudder a bit if it is way too low.
3. I always thought you shouldn't put it into first until you are going really slowly. In older cars you couldn't put it into first until you were stopped but that wouldn't be the case with your car.
4. Shouldn't be. I don't blip the throttle every time I down shift and haven't had any adverse affects.
