A great tip for hill starts is to have the correct mentality. DO NOT be thinking about rolling back, other wise you are likely to roll back. Example: What ever you do DON'T think of a pink elephant, so what are you thinking of?? A pink elephant right? FOCUS on what you need to do, FOCUS on moving forwards.

[@kazzng2087]

Too right. When you're learning to drive good mentality and confidence play a vital part.

[@joysoncardoza9018]

[@white_shadow_123]

Well, you need to be aware that car can go backwards if you don't start quick enough. One thing is thinking about pink elephant, other thing is doing it. Your logic is not in place..

Pro tip: Just don't care about redlining your car when hill starting. Be sure to not redline in 2nd and so on though

[@quan1509]

Sandeep Singh thanks for the tip!

[@T.Hxrris]

Sandeep Singh what does red lining even mean

[@SandeepSinghMango]

​@@T.Hxrris In your tachometer, which is next to the speedometer on the dashboard of your car, you can see the RPM and for most of the cars the numbers get red after 6, meaning you've hit 6000 RPM. So when the needle gets to 6K rpm (or any different depending on the unit) you're redlining. Essentially just driving at a very high rpm or your motor is spinning really quickly. Thing is, when you're hill starting, you can redline your car when you still have the handbrake on to get the momentum as soon as you release it . If you start moving it drops significantly but you should keep giving gas not to stall. Hence why you shouldn't worry about redlining because it drops a lot anyways as you start moving and unless you don't release the clutch enough you won't redline again. That's just my experience with my car though, hope that clarifies it.

[@strahinjazuvic7832]

let me understand something. basically i should let go brake and left pedal (i dont know how to say it on English) and then add some gas?

[@SamuelSalzman]

Learned how to hill start in a 1981 Chevrolet Corvette, with a broken hand brake, letting the clutch out to the bite point, right foot still on the brake, when moving from the brake to the throttle, the car won't move back, due to holding the clutch to the bite point, then start giving it gas, while slowly letting out the clutch. -A self taught manual driver.

Jack Taylor try getting use to finding the balance point where you have the clutch somewhat depress and having the gas in just a tad bit where you hold the car steady on a hill, no rolling back or moving forward the “bite” point.. this is a bad idea with long term use but once you get the feeling of your “bite” point, muscle memory will allow you to quickly release the brake peddle and find your bite point in a split second reflex.. really not that hard to master

I'd recommend you don't bother with the "no-handbrake" hill start. It's unnecessary and dangerous, and puts more stress on the clutch. Unless you're missing an arm, there is literally no good reason to avoid using the handbrake. A no-handbrake hill start will never be as fast or smooth as a well executed handbrake start.

I have trouble keeping my heel down. I have a golf Mk7 and the clutch travel is pretty damn long, if I push it all the way in and put my foot down, I don't seem to have enough angle in my heel to actually release the clutch. if anyone has any tips that would be really helpful, I only passed my test a couple weeks ago 😅

[@bestmcprogramhackermegacheatxd]

As I have a front wheel drive car, and the handbrake locks only the rear wheels, I prefer going with the handbrake. because the brake pedal locks all the wheels, which means my front wheels get more resistance, which means my clutch disk will die faster. AAAND my vehicle is kind of heavy, so jumping off the clutch and revving it, will make my first wheels spin while I'm sliding backwards down the hill (mainly in winter) :) (I'm amazed, how easily I can spin my first wheels on a flat surface when I'm just trying to start from a stop)

[@Paynos]

Exact reason my go to is the handbrake too, deffo easier on the car and less risky in traffic in general to top it off

[@keithward2283]

My driving instructor in 1960 used to drive up a steep hill stop at the top having put the car back into first (no synchro back then) and was holding the car on the clutch, no handbrake, ready to pull out when clear. Once I passed my test I managed to work out how to do the same I only use a handbrake when I park no need during journey. Never warn a clutch out in my life.

[@eugene9852]

A 1.0, meaning a 1 litre engine? That would make it a bit tricky. An engine that size will have very little torque, so you need to be careful to maintain the rev's to avoid stalling. Keeping your heel braced against the floor as you release the clutch will help a lot. You want to be releasing the clutch just by pivoting your angle, rather than moving your whole leg. This gives you much more control. Release the clutch until you feel it start to take, then pause in this position momentarily, while you give the engine a bit more throttle and simultaneously release the handbrake. So basically the handbrake is just used to hold the car in place until the clutch engages, then it's job is finished.

[@debramcneely8944]

I have an old pick up with manual transmission with no handbrake. The emergency brake is on the floor. I came across videos on how to start on an incline without rolling backwards at all, and this was all new information to me. I practiced a bit after watching the videos and then I told my boyfriend who had been complaining that I roll backwards too much when starting on an incline. I wasn’t rolling too much but that’s besides the point. The boyfriend who had been a truck driver for 14 years said that this was a technique used for vehicles with handbrakes and that using this technique in my vehicle, with emergency brake on the floor, would wear out my clutch prematurely. I can’t find a single comment or any info on this at all. I have to know if he has a valid point or is he just trying to make me feel as if I can’t do anything right once again??

[@michaelwalker8250]

But the release of the clutch at a certain point makes the car vibrate while the brake is down, at which point you'd ease up off the brake, and without any rev at all the car begins to move. I'm not sure why this method isn't often mentioned as there's not need for immediate throttle, just the clutch and brake.

When you've been driving for longer, you'll start to be able to naturally feel what's going on with the car.

Why do people from uk say that clutching up to bite point before giving gas is bad even if you know where your bite point is?? You just can do it fast clutch to bite then give gas - car rolls, and am sure you don't have to use hand brake every second you stop or on every small hill because foot brake is quick enough.Also it really helps on hills and is a faster start.Here there's no roll back because clutch is already to the bite and meets the gas.

Plus when I don’t use the handbrake and do it this way I do slightly roll back as I’m repositioning my feet is this normal? Or if I do it quicker would that stop that

Or will it always be the case?

I also just purchased a seat Ibiza 2007 the other day, it’s my first car although I haven’t got enough confidence to take it on the roads just yet. Hopefully your videos will help me.

Some people say using the clutch instead of handbrake is not a good method, they call it riding the clutch which is not good for clutch life. Is it true?

[@Paynos]

Yeah using the clutch to hold you everywhere will just shorten the life of it and they're expensive!

[@vntn1259]

I can see with ur pedals why u keep ur heal on the floor as the clutch is quite small n looks very easy compared to mine. I have a brand new car and the clutch isn’t stiff but it isn’t loose either n my feet are just too small to keep my heal on the floor lmao great video tho il just stick to using my handbrake

Welcome back

[@Paynos]

Thank you! 💪

[@eugene9852]

I don't understand why this is even such a contentious issue. This is what the handbrake is for, so use it. It makes hill starts faster, safer, and easier. It's a no-brainer.

[@Paynos]

Yes!!!! You'll be amazed how many people moan about using it lmao

[@eugene9852]

@@Paynos I've heard this as well. I just laugh it off. Fortunately when I was first learning, I had a very good teacher, who instilled good habits, so by the time I heard my first "handbrake is for noobs" type comment, I was already experienced enough to know I could safely ignore them.

[@SheIITear]

i have never seen anyone use handbrake on hill starts unless the car was parked uphill.

[@ImBrockatron]

Lol what if you have manual brakes and can't press the clutch and brakes together all the way?

[@BenjaminLbetlu]

Bro you must see hlaf clutch in a real hill you can check out Mizoram driving half clutch just saying bro it can be different form place to place

[@JupiterMan12.000]

On Mild Hills I use one of these Techniques. On Steep Hills Though I use the Handbrake
