I asked what can be done to extend the life of the gearbox. Mech said their life just runs out.
Obviously not using the gas pedal to stay stationary on a hill is bad. But this same phenomenon can happen in Park aswell. So must put it in N first before going to P. (You can feel the load in P). Also do not drop the car on to P while parking on a hill.
So to sum it up, to park, first to N then handbrake then P.
