Vehicle roll back in Park

[Dawid Potgieter]

2023 Trial aster Diesel. +/- 15 000km. I don't know if I'm imagining things, so want to get opinions. My parking bay is on a slight incline. When I drive in I have to brake to bring the vehicle to a stop, then put it in Park, and then lift foot off brake pedal. Lately I have been noticing that the Grenny rolls back a bit when I release the brake pedal. I can't remember that it was doing this before. There is no roll back when I pull up the hand brake. Feels odd. I don't remember having any roll back previously when in Park and releasing the brake pedal.

Probably should apply the hand brake while foot is still on the brake. The park pawl in any auto transmission is not designed to repeatedly hold a vehicle on an incline. The park pawl wears quicker and can become more difficult to disengage sometimes to the point the car has to be pushed up the incline to release the load on on the park mechanism in the transmission.

Seems pretty normal to me.
