Default CLK500 2006 Big issue, need info from other owners! MB said it's normal!

Traded 530 BMW for 2006 CLK500 cabriolet. Have a problem,other owners please advise!

1) When parked up or down the hill the car rolls... If facing up on a hill in park and put the car in Drive, it rolls back. If facing down up on a hill and put in Reverse the car rolls forward as if in Neutral. The steaper the slope the faster the car rolls. It makes it impossible to parallel park on hills, it will run ina closely parked vehicle!
Car under warranty. MB said it's 722.9 transmissionhas "No hold feature" and is normal, and that was changed after 2006 models.

2)Also the doors are hard to open, MB also said it's normal for cabriolet.

3)Windows keep leaking wind noise on a freeway even after replaced seals.

Drove every model in my life as i travel a lot and NEVER seen anything like this! PLEASE see if your CLK up to 2006 models oes the same.Thank you.

Just have your left foot on the break and right on gas when your on a hill.... I would gladly give up my 5 speed for a 7 speed..
