question on auto cars
-
when parking, do u shift the gear to 'P' then pull up the handbrake or the other way round?
-
For me, I always shift to 'P' first then pull the handbrake, but I'm not sure whether is that correct or not.
-
i always pull handbrake 1st
-
sometimes i just pull handbrake, turn off the engine and leave the car, forget to shift to P. usually left the gear in D or R prior to leaving the car in these instances...
imo i guess either way is fine so long as you don't drive with your handbrakes up
edit: sentence structure -
Either way should be fine. But i usually shift to P before pulling the handbrake.. Feels more 'correct'..
-
My dad shifts to 'P' first then pull handbrake.

Doesn't matter, you can leave it at P or R or N or D or D2 3 then pull handbrake or other way round, its still the same. Just dun complain your car got problem starting cos you forgot to shift the lever out of D or R before turning the key
-
I can't even remove the key if the lever is at D or R...Originally posted by tomsss:Doesn't matter, you can leave it at P or R or N or D or D2 3 then pull handbrake or other way round, its still the same.

Back to the topic, usually I will go to P first before pulling handbrake. -
Yeah same for me, can't remove key without putting into P. I put into P then lift handbrake too
-
mm.. it should be "P" then pull the hand brake
-
If car on slope,pull parking brake first then put gear selector to P...level road,doesn't matter...
-
Actually is true, shift to P first then pull handbrake is a better choice the other way round also can but got high chance there will be wear and tear in the grearsOriginally posted by HeXy:Either way should be fine. But i usually shift to P before pulling the handbrake.. Feels more 'correct'.. -
If you stay in a landed property, you don't really need to pull out the keys, do you?Originally posted by w2k_83:I can't even remove the key if the lever is at D or R...

In any case, I normally do both, but not necessarily in any order.

Some cars dun even allow you to lock the car as long as the P gear is not up
-

i normally park on a slope. this is how i do it;
footbrake -> P -> handbrake -> release footbrake
is this ok? -
from wat i heard for parking on slope,it's best to go to N -> handbrake -> P.if not when trying to shift from P -> D will be quite toughOriginally posted by nyox:i normally park on a slope. this is how i do it;
