if you noticed, if you were to place it in D with your handbrake on, your back of your car will sink..

this applies to quite alot of cars that i have driven be it family, company or rented..

cars such as chevy aveo, fiat punto, honda airwave, suzuki liana..

the back of the car will sink?? explain abit p;ls.

I think he meant when you accelerate, you will feel the car being 'pushed' into the ground at the rear. Coz auto gear got torque converter, which means when the brakes are released, the car will crawl forward. So when you engage handbrake, the handbrake will resist the 'crawling motion', however, the handbrakes are not as strong as the normal foot brake, so there will be some small 'sinkage' feeling when you engage the handbrake and release the foot brake. It's basic law of physics I think.

But I don't see what's wrong with 'sinking'. I'd rather let the car 'sink' than keep putting it into neutral and engage handbrake. But still, the best option is just keep your feet on the foot brakes.

correct.. thats what im trying to say..

1st choice - d with foot brake..

2nd choice - d with handbrake..

3rd choice - p/n with handbrake..

4th choice - off the engine the handbrake lo..

Wrong, I told TS what is his problem already. And I got that information from the onwer's manual. Check the previous posts if you want to know the source of the problem.
