umhhh... I always do e-brake on flat surfaces and 1st and e-brake on hills, but since I got my G a week ago the e-brake is not holding my car enough, so I'm using 1st and e-brake all the time, I wonder if there's a thread around here that explain how to adjust your e-brake.

becundo, i ran into that once, i had to really wrench on the ebrake to get that last bit of the brake engaged, and it was fine, but where I normally pull it to is fine on flat surfaces, just have to really torque it on hills

Neutral + Ebrake 90% of the time. If I'm on a hill I use 1st + EBrake

+2 , IMHO, no need to leave it in gear (due to the fact that you MAY forget due to some rare instance)

however on a hill 1st + ebrake to be safe

Not much point leaving it in gear if it's in 4th.
