Can't help with some of this but be sure your gear selector lever is where it belongs. There is a little play in mine and if the light is not on in drive or 2nd or whatever, it is still in the previous gear.
 
Yes you will have some play . Yes the wheels will still turn in neutral so make damn sure you brake before putting it in park!!! try having just one wheel touching the ground and ,by hand, try to turn the other tire. should have a slight drag though the clutch paks.
