you should always use the parking brake.Question for you guys out there.
Should I be using the parking break everytime I park, regardless of if its on a hill or not? Does it really take the pressure/weight off the transmission?
I've never owned a manual, so I'm not used to it, but it seems like a good idea.
What are you thoughts?
Good question, I'd love to know the answer!?Question for you guys out there.

Yes. The parking pawl (the mechanicsm that keeps your car from rolling forward or backward) is not designed to carry weight like a parking brake. Especially when parking on a hill, engage the parking brake first, release the main brake, then put it in park.Question for you guys out there.
