It will be parked on a slope with the gear shift in first gear as my emergency brake is not working properly. I wanted to know if leaving it in first gear for such a long time on a slope do any damage to the car? Help will be appreciated.

If you want to take the stress off the car, put a wood block behind your rear tires and put the car's weight against it. Then put it in gear and shut it off.

If very steep you can get metal chucks (I think they are called) that should work better than blocks of other types. You see truckers use them all the time. That or if time, fix the dang parking brake now, T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
