Hand brake should still work with no brake fluid.I’m not sure the order matters that much. It all works.
I’ve had a stick since learning to drive and the only ‘new’ thing is this push button ignition. I’ve had this habit forever of turning the key off while coming to a stop (before stopping).
With the push button it’s a bit annoying. Above a certain speed if you push the button to turn it off, it just doesn’t turn it off. Maybe it’s not speed related and maybe I just don’t push the button hard enough sometimes. Punch line is that I think the car is off and I get that lurching surprise that kills the motor every once in a while.
Push button start coupled with proximity entry is convenient, but I’d give them both up for a real keyed ignition.
With my JL I lost all my brake fluid while off-roading. In that case my only way of stopping the vehicle on the last half of the trail was to leave it in gear and turn the Jeep off, then coasting to a stop. Was sure glad to have a manual that day.
