The roll back is too much. I'm barely on a 5 degree angle facing up and I roll back, nearly hit the other car.

learn how to drive a manual then you won't have that problem or just use your e-brake

hold clutch, with left foot, hold brake with right foot
when you're ready to go, quickly let go of brake and step on a lot of gas, then slowly release clutch

easier with parking brake, it's like having a 3rd foot hold down the brake for you

heh i know how to drive stick, just pointing out that roll back in an auto isnt a big deal

still annoying when someone pulls up that close on a steep hill, and the time i was talking about was when i had just gotten my civic and wasnt used to the clutch yet (its very different than the one in my 88 dodge omni)

its not like rollback is just a problem with civics though...and manual transmission car will have rollback. And the next time you race someone and barely win you will be stoked you have a stick. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Haw! Just saying that the roll back to too much on such a tiny incline. My other hondas handled better.

ummm, more rollback is better, it means theres less rolling friction.

Just use the ebrake if you're not confident, or learn how to properly drive a stick

*IMPORTANT UPDATE*

After rereading the thread in its entirety, I guess I did not clearly explain my car. Note this: I have an automatic. Roll backs on automatics on a small incline can mean something is wrong.

Mine does that too, and it's an automatic too. It usually only does it on a fairly steep incline though

Mine does it too and I have an auto but its only on pretty steep hills.

get used to driving a ULEV car, the idle is set low to save gas, thats why it rolls back more than other automatics
