  • Rolling when in gear

    When parked on a hill my truck rolls even though it is in gear (1st) once the hand brake is released. I would of thought the compression of the engine would hold it but it doesn't. I have tried this facing up and down hill in 1st and reverse and it rolls every time. Is this normal or does it suggest a problem?

    depends on how steep the hill is, is it auto or manual? no need to worry to much as long as the hand brake is good. cheers samo
    had an 03 gx 120 with some gear now got a 2013 bt 50 GT auto some ARB gear.

      If it is a steep hill gravity will override the creep factor of the auto box

        It's a manual parked in first gear. The hill does not have to be very steep at all.

          Hey Matty. You will find it is not so much the engine compression issue but gearing. Modern vehicles tend to have a much taller 1st and reverse than the older vehicles and so using the "park in gear" system isnt a good idea unless you use low box. Cheers.
