| Properly parking an automatic car
So this is what I have heard and am wondering if anyone can elaborate.
Stop car, turn it off. Put it in Park, and slowly let go of the brake. This will slowly apply a load onto the transmission/motor. Once the vehicle has stopped moving, apply the e-Brake
- Reasoning: If you put the car in Park (With your foot on the brake) and apply the e-brake, and let go of the brake pedal, then all of the weight is being supported by the e-brake (since no rollback has occured), if your e-brake snaps, your car will roll forward and potentially continue onwards (steep inclines, assuming you didn't turn the wheels toward the curb) since the only thing holding the car is the parking pin, which can easily be overcome if there is enough momentum
True or false? I used to put it in Park, apply the e-brake and let go of the brake pedal, but the above reasoning makes much more sense. In the last little while I have slowly applied the load onto the transmission and re-inforced it with the e-brake afterwards.
This isn't really meant to be a debate about mechanics or anything, purely educational. I understand that most people's parking habits don't really matter, but I'm just curious as to how it SHOULD be done

I was always taught to release the brake pedal after the parking brake was applied.

Park, apply e-brake, release foot brake.
Should the parking brake fail, which is rare and means your cable is stretched or brakes aren't adjusted , the parking pall will stop the car.
It's the same as way you're now suggesting, except your not putting a load on the tranny unless the parking brake fails - which should be never. No point putting a load on it everytime you park and risk wearing out the pall pin.

After a hard drive, you should be cooling your car down anyways, your rear brakes don't get that hot and rear rotors rarely warp.
Go buy me lunch you troll.

I assume this is a troll thread - but a serious question for you guys.
I was told as follows:
Stop Car , Pull up E-brake , Put in Park , Turn off Car
Start Car , Put in Drive , Put down E-brake, Drive on
Reasoning: If I put the car in park without doing the ebrake first, the weight of the motor is on the transmission. Eventually as the car gets older the cables will stretch and etc and I will start to hear a "thud" when going from P to D.
Any truth to this?

Honest answer:
Stop.
Neutral.
E Brake.
Release Foot brake.
Park.
Off.
If shit happens, I'd rather replace the ebrake cable rather than dropping the tranny to replace the pin/pawl.
