Cold start Q - Overnight parking on an incline

My new driveway is at quite a steep incline. Which would be better for cold start & oil feed to the rotors. Parking with the front of the RX facing up or down?

Front facing down, IIRC.
I'd also press the clutch before starting it to prevent the AWS from kicking in.

i don't think it matters much. assuming your fluids are at the correct levels, the oil and fuel are under pressure...
