Roll in Park?
Anyone notice their car roll back or front somewhat after engaging park? Just started noticing this for the first time this week.

Are you not using your parking brake?

My car has about two inches of movement after hitting park. Nothing out of the ordinary.

+1. I think there are spacings between where the parking pawl engages, mine will roll slighlty, about 2" unless the pawl happens to line up perfectly when engaging Park. I typically engage my parking brake while in Neutral on inclines (therefore doesn't roll when engaging Park), but on a relatively flat surface like my garage, I don't use the P-brake. The car will still roll slightly as described. Why don't I use the parking brake, a whole other story. Since there is only full on or full off (no user modulation), I see no need to jam it totally on on a flat surface.
