Wear and tear on the transmission? Single best thing to improve lifespan of your vehicle? Jesus. Park pawl does not = transmission, when it comes to wear and tear, unless you are slamming it into P while cruising at 5MPH or above.Years ago a mechanic told me the single best thing you can do to increase the lifespan of your vehicle is use the parking break every time you park.
Makes sense and I have done that ever since. I doubt you'll wear out your parking brake, but wear and tear on transmission is a real concern. I'd error on side of using it.
