No, this is not an invitation to other transmissions for a play date in the park.

The vehicle in question is a '95 E320 Special Edition Sedan with 150,000 miles. I bought it at 122,000 and have lived with the current condition since then with no discernable change.

When shifting into park, the car will roll around 6" - 8" either way depending on the grade upon which I'm parked. I use the parking brake regularly, shifting to neutral, then engaging the park brake, then up to Park.

Is the rolling a problem? Should it be addressed sooner rather than later? Or is it something that is best left alone and not worry about it?

Additionally, a 2 - 3 second delay occurs before transmission engages when shifting from R to D and vice versa. More noticeably when shifting from R to D, I often feel two separate engagements - as if the transmission engages and then the differential engages (just a guess). Anything to be conerned about here?

Thank you for your consideration and help!
