In Germany, people never honk at you for tailgating or speeding, but stalling for less than a second makes sitting next to a rocket launch seem like a blessing.

no one really honks at people tailgating cause they are behind you tailgating, more of like Brake Check. For speeding, no one honks at speeding either unless if they do a really dangerous too close for comfort overtake.

SkyfoxPlays guy that’s new to manual here: I honestly find it harder using the handbrake anyway cos then I forget to release it or release it too slow and then wonder why my cars not moving and then burn out my clutch from revving too high 😂. I rather just find the biting point with my foot still on the brake and then quickly get on the throttle and go

[@stoopidhaters]

It's no fun when you stall on a hill with traffic behind you. People behind you must think every car is automatic and you simply must be stopping for no reason.

[@patrickryandrums]

in america yeah everyone has an automatic here

I live Oman and thankfully we dont have a lot of traffic nor hills like yall do ... people here rarely drive stick but im training driving stick cause ... #savethemanuals plus im 18 year old car guy :).

[@angelgjr1999]

Yeah. I hate it when people stop 1/2 an inch from your rear bumper, so you stall out in a panic to prevent rolling back on the hills. Then they get mad. People really need to chill and be patient while driving. They’re the reason why car insurance is very expensive!

When in doubt, throttle out. 🤣 I drive a 1.3 so yeah, not much torque in it. When starting from a really steep hill, I use the handbrake then rev it all the way to 3000rpm or higher before slowly letting off the clutch until it starts pulling itself up without rolling backwards. It's annoying 'cause it gets so loud, but it gets the job done. 😂

Did a hill start today during my lessons with plenty of traffic behind me. They thought that i would stall, but i proved them wrong haha.

[@GaryandCraig]

I take it that you drive a petrol, as hill starts in a Diesel are so much easier. I took my driving lesson in a diesel and never stalled as it is hard to stall a diesel, but as soon as I got in my dads petrol, everytime I would pull away I would worry about stalling. Diesels are great.

[@LHawkesDrums]

Had the same experience I'm being taught in a Diesel, and then got into my mother's petrol (which also has a larger 1.6 litre engine compared to my instructor's 1.2) and i stalled numerous times

[@Trident_Euclid]

Gary Bull Low tourq is a major factor in stalling.

[@MCA0090]

It's just a matter of stepping on the gas before the clutch reach the biting point, but it requires some practice to do it perfectly.

[@jacoblight3208]

The learner car I'm learning in for the driving school is a diesel and my car I drive is a petrol. Weird as hell transitioning from one to the other daily.

Many new cars no longer have manual parking brakes... I just purchased my first manual. It has a finger operated electronic parking brake. I’m self taught - your videos, Chris, are amongst my favorites. You’re on the Podium! I’ve almost mastered hill starts by using foot brake & finding biting point - then moving foot to throttle and moving off yay, I’m an American in Tucson Arizona. 2020 Corolla Hatchback. Hill Hold Assist = Stall

[@jumbie4972]

Thanks you earned a subscriber, 26 year old and never drove a standard. Bought one and stalled a couple times but I'm getting used to it. One thing for all the new drivers the biting point / sweet spot is the key to driving standard transmission. Once you have a understanding of it focus on it and improve it.

[@Paynos]

Good luck with the driving! Thanks for subbing, it's a skill that's so rewarding once you get it down

[@JBlooey]

I live across the pond where we can barely manage automatic, so I don't have much experience with manual transmissions. Living in a mountainous part of Utah doesn't help. I recently got a job at a dealership where we occasionally get manual cars. I always stall out just trying to go from one end of the lot to the other just from a small slope. This video increased my limited knowledge a little more. Thanks for uploading this, man!

[@Countrysideboy247]

Those folks driving loaded manual vehicles in the rugged mountains of Afghanistan, North Pakistan, North India, Nepal and Bhutan deserve a special round of applause.

[@thetick48]

Owned a manual in Pittsburgh PA, US (famous for our hilly urban terrain) - haven't owned a manual in years... really miss the control. First *hours* I owned it, needed to drive through town and then make a two hour trip for Thanksgiving with my family. Stalled twice in town because a Penguins hockey game was letting out and I had no time to practice. Made it the rest of the drive with only one stall. But uphill starts on a 50-60° street and a car on your bumper can really make you nervous! I can attest to that!!! Started watching engineering videos about worm gears and ended up here. Great tutorial!

[@thelonelywolf88]

I live in America, and I'm not a full expert at manuals yet. Hill starts are what I still struggle with. Sure, I can get it moving on a flat ground with no problem, but I'm always worried about rolling backwards too much. Also, working in a garage, I had to do this same technique so I wouldn't roll back into the car parked behind me

You should definitely go to Bogota and practice driving on the many bridges we have, in a city that's packed with traffic jams almost everyday.

[@veeq4210]

easy way to do it without handbrake is to hold the clutch just before the binding point and use your right foot for the brake, when it's time to go let the foot off the bake and onto a little bit of accelerator

[@endeavour5762]

My instructor said i did the same, but a long as you have the accelerator down you can raise clutch real slow and you will still move... it's a panic reaction to quickly raise clutch!

[@Paynos]

[@pieflies]

Once you get used you your clutch, unless you’re on an extremely steep hill it’s not necessary to use the handbrake. You can just go foot off the brake pedal to the accelerator and clutch out to the friction point at the same time, then apply appropriate accelerator and gradually release the clutch. It all happens very fast but you get used to it and then it’s just muscle memory. On very steep hills you might roll back slightly so if there’s someone stopped too close behind you the handbrake might be a safer option.

[@therealb888]

Paynos Keeping the heel of the floor is taught by every Indian instructor. The reason is Indian driving school cars mostly use cheap low power highly damaged cars. They are so difficult to drive that these Indian instructors know every little dirty trick. Powerful cars with good clutch have enough power to easily start rolling. If an average American driver is a sheriff, then an average Indian driver is a Vietnam guerilla soldier.

[@kilimadalin]

i'm gonna reply to this cause idk if u stll read comment to this video: u said if u don't use throttle the car is gonna stall, so how do people hill start using their brake pedal instead of the hand brake ( where u need to fast move ur feet from brake to throttle when the clutch is at biting point)?

Mad respect who drive manuals. I drive a dirtbike which is a manual and hill starts are wicked hard when you bog out. You have to feather the clutch so much and it takes so much getting used to and so much confidence in the car.

Yeah that's always worrying. Just remember that you're in control of how you drive so keep calm and ignore the people if they're honking at you! Keep your head and know that they stall too, everyone does it!

[@nithingeorge9647]

Thanks mate :-)..how to drive a hill when there's traffic?like is it advisable to use handbrakes?

[@Paynos]

Oh yeah it would be best to use the handbrake so you don't roll back in to the car behind you. The safer the better. Take it easy and use more revs if you need to.

[@nithingeorge9647]

Thanks a lot mate .. Cheers :-) will there be any damage to the car if we use the throttle higher at lower gears?

[@Paynos]

If you are revving very high and holding the clutch you can burn the clutch but you have to be holding it for a while. You won't have to worry if it's every now and then but try not to do it too much!

[@HexlGaming]

another trick: floor it & then dump the clutch. that way you'll also make it every time; without stalling... xd

[@alicoolman1xx]

Its what I do too. But keep hold of the biting point for about 2 seconds then floor it.

[@yoalvin2287]

She Learns 2 Code putting your foot right down on the accelerator and releasing the clutch rapidly will cause you to wheel spin, meaning if you’re learning to drive...don’t try it lol

For anyone that has ever had a problem stalling while learning at a light. I got a manual, my dad has been driving manuals for the better part of 30+ years. So as a good son I let him drive it, he stalled on flat ground at a light. It wasn't even the first light we had gotten to, we were already driving for about 20 minutes. At that light he stalled, He got honked at when he wasn't even stopped for 3 seconds at that point. He was so embarrassed, and was so disappointed that people were upset. I promise you that nobody cares about you driving a manual and they will honk but the biggest thing to learn is to keep going, don't get frustrated or upset, just restart the engine and get moving. Half the people on the road won't respect you for driving a manual but to everyone that does you're a hero for the willingness to push through.

first time driving by my self my dad comes out to watch me start. thank god i didn't stall.

[@harikrishnanr1971]

I'm glad I found your video, you're a lifesaver!

[@fishy4374]

Thanks for the video! I'm watching lots of your videos right now because I'm learning how to drive and my instructor's always really impatient with me (had a terrible session this morning) These really help me to understand driving manual more and I hope in my next lesson it would be better;;

[@Paynos]

Thank you! Glad you're getting over a bad instructor!

[@Xplorati0N]

I think the best way I learned with Hill Starts is no Throttle, just find the biting point and the clutch alone will hold the car still then add throttle then release clutch when the cars moving fast enough :)

[@danm4320]

this technique is much harder on a petrol car.

[@joecollings1942]

Clutch control is much easier on Diesels than Petrol cars.

[@400Redsport]

Depends on the car though, my G can do this. Weaker engines cannot hold with just the clutch

[@zacharymazzuca1150]

my car's not powerful enough to do this... or maybe you're talking about a much less steep hill

[@thekornrole]

this is how you destroy your clutch

[@wolfschindler8921]

Release the handbrake when the rear of the car goes down.

[@keiravallejo6972]

Thank you! My instructor’s car has an automatic handbrake thingy. My car I’ve bought has a real handbrake. It’s hard trying to learn it on my own so this has helped so much.

[@mariabloom2933]

Yesterday,the car stalled while approaching a junction/traffic lights, I used 3rd gear and I was slow to change into lower gear.. haha.Poor me!

[@bellatorresbruh7900]

Maria Bloom Nothings more painful than stalling your car at a light and everyone just honks and points the middle finger

[@Trident_Euclid]

BellaTorresBruh That's second biggest problem with me in manual shift after quick downshifting 😣

[@statix]

you can still pull away in 3rd gear, treat it like a hill start, and more gas

[@endeavour5762]

You can't pull away in 3rd gear unless maybe you literally floor the accelerator. Not in a 1.2L anyway@@statix

[@athimoolamkaran4896]

good

[@BabyBluesKya]

I found this actually so helpful and not so stressful to listen to. All other videos made me stress more.

[@Paynos]

I'm so glad this helped you! Good luck with learning :)

[@simranheer7331]

This video so brilliant my driver instructor never told me that so thank u so much for this video x🙏

[@jernrff6912]

This is great. I failed my first test on a hill start. My second one is tomorrow :(

[@jamalcolmpayne7938]

Did you pass 👀

[@jernrff6912]

JaMalcolm Payne ahah yes I did 😂

[@jamalcolmpayne7938]

Jern Rff awesome!!! Big congrats! Just learned myself a few days ago. Hills still give me trouble though 😕

[@jernrff6912]

JaMalcolm Payne you will get used to them. If I can do it then anyone can 😂

[@jamalcolmpayne7938]

Jern Rff made the hill easily but stalled on the regular road twice 😂 my brain just dumped out. I figured I would too b/c I’m tired af leaving work today for some reason lol.

[@berko2243]

I did this like 10 times on driving lessons and I stalled only the first time. I just want to know how to do it smoothly because it shakes sometimes xD

[@the_irate_juan8462]

If it shakes too much, I guess it's either you're releasing the clutch too much too early, or you need to give it more revs. 😉

[@alicoolman1xx]

Its all to do with that clutch, practice it more and you get the hang of it.

[@josephiwuji3956]

Thanks for helping me through this. Seriously its been a challenge for me. Just learning how to drive

[@MrE101277]

Thank you so much. I just got a manual myself. Older car but still same idea and this video helped me a lot. Now if only I could stop doing unintentional burnouts on hills that would be great. :) Thank you again! Love it.

[@patrickryandrums]

Burnouts are better than stalling though!

[@milimili809]

Can you teach me to drive cause my dad yells at me when i stall the car (jk)

[@TheSignal337]

I need to practice this skill. I'm a Bus Driver. I drive the bus for the Bus Company in a major city up North in the Continental USA. I feel very embarrassed that I cant drive a vehicle with a Manual Transmission. I drive the Bus with an Automatic Transmission.

[@lexsoft3969]

??? I think a bus/heavy truck driver is supposed to be able to drive a manual vehicle.

[@snwman91]

Lex Soft most buses are automatic. Only one school bus manufacturer even makes a manual bus and they don't sell many.

[@lexsoft3969]

+snwman91 I know many modern buses are automatic nowadays. But what if a driver is supposed to drive an old bus. And what about truck/lorry : are there automatic trucks too ?

[@snwman91]

Lex Soft yes a lot of trucks have automatics too. Straight trucks here commonly have a 6 speed auto and a lot of tractor trailers have 10 speed autos.

[@lexsoft3969]

+snwman91 Thanks for replying.

[@qasimali5648]

Mate I appreciate this video got an ibiza myself video helped me out alot. Keep it up👍

[@aarons7836]

This video saved my life and im not joking. I stalled on a gravel road on the side of a cliff, i backed up and didnt realize i didnt give myself enough space for stalling the car. I watched this video the night before and its the only reason I got it the car up on that hill. This is not a bluff, im in another country and new to driving a manyal. Thank you for this video

[@viiperbiite]

I turn 16 (Legal age to get a learners driving license in New Zealand) next year and I'm petrified of learning to driving alone but I'm more than petrified of doing a hill start. I mean I have a literal near panic attack when someone else drives up a hill for goodness sake.

[@Slowshyy]

With time and practice you may become more confident in performing hill starts, or even driving up a hill in general. I'm still not a huge fan of doing it myself after over a year of solo driving in my own car, but every time I do just fine because of the experience - mostly from driving by myself, but it all started with my lessons with my instructor. You will find driving after you've passed your practical and theory is where you really learn to drive and, importantly, gain confidence and competence. All the best with it, my dude.

[@mattholden5080]

i live in nz also and just got my license, only been driving manual for a week and am confident with hill starts. Just don't panic and if you feel you are gonna stall, clutch in and hit the break.

[@surajmandal5593]

What about hill star as well traffic ?

[@CellTowerElectrician]

Thank you! This is what I've always had an issue with, now I know

[@golflads9610]

nice video man! i'm great with hill starts but thought i'd give it a watch, bit of extra advice won't go a miss! so thought i'd give it a like! great videos mate keep it up

[@Paynos]

Charlie Jones Thanks for watching man! Cheers for the kind words

[@terr256]

Bought my first manual car. This is my biggest issue haha

[@utkarshgupta6914]

Well I came here coz today I went out all on my own for the first time and my car stalled 7 times on a hill before somehow magically it started😑😑😑

[@kaymcclx]

This is so helpful thank you! I dont Hill starts today and I just couldn't get my head around it lol so next time I'll use your tips hopefully it will help 😊

[@ignoigno1]

This video was very helpful. Thanks a lot!

[@elvesnspells7774]

I'll legit give you my left arm if I pass my manual driving test come the 9th😂😣😣😣

[@myrockymountain4102]

Did you pass!?!?

[@VictorianTransportSpotter]
