[@oildraws8737]

This is so accurate wtf

[@johncochran8497]

Using a manual transmission. 1. Inertia is your friend. 2. You're not racing, once you're moving, you have plenty of time to shift. 3. The hand brake is your friend when learning to hill start. 4. Engage clutch rapidly, release slowly. With practice, your speed will increase and you won't need to use the hand brake for hill starting. Hill starting 1. Engage the hand brake to hold the vehicle. This means you don't have to worry about rapidly moving your right foot from the brake to the accelerator. 2. Release the foot brake and press on the accelerator. 3. Slowly release the clutch until you feel the vehicle attempt to move forward 4. Release the hand brake 5. Continue to release the clutch and increase the accelerator. And as mentioned, with practice, the time it takes from releasing the foot brake to moving forward on a hill start will drop to the point where you won't need to use the hand brake and inertia will be enough to hold the vehicle in place while starting out.

[@SecretSickle89]

John Cochran very useful. Not releasing the clutch slowly is the mistake I’m making as a beginner atm. Especially in traffic you don’t want to hold anyone up and you put a lot of pressure on yourself to not stall it lol

4:50 This is why I'm thankful for tutorial videos. My parents are both great drivers, but neither one of them told me I wasn't supposed to lift my whole leg when using the clutch, probably because they couldn't see what my leg was doing while they sat in the passenger seat. No wonder I keep stalling so much (besides the fact I've only been practicing a couple days), I'm releasing the clutch too fast.

After around my 5th stall he finally went to go around me and as he passed he shouted "learn how to fucking drive".

heel on the floor. LOL. I literally cant do that, my feet/ankles dont have the correct maneuverability to do it. My feet hovver but it gets me by. I passed yesterday, and everything you said is bang on. DO NOT RUSH! That was my downfall as a learner was I was trying to hurry out of a situation and it just messed the car up.

[@smartdrivetest]

Hi woollen hat - that is a great comment. Yes, too often new drivers feel pressure by other drivers to hurry. As you said, you have to focus on what you're doing, take a breath and make the right choice. Some times that means stopping. And yes, when learning to drive standard you can't always put your heel on the floor. Thus, it's important to isolate the clutch and learn clutch control before adding the throttle. All the best, Cheers Rick

[@odiecd1348]

You're a top lad! Thanks for giving people more of the spin they need for day-to-day. As you've heard, it's really vital for learning/newly licensed people transitioning from diesel to petrol. Holding it at the bite for a few secs before bringing it up as you said really helped me!

[@dhruvpandya4136]

I learned manual and I found matching rev is far more distracting. I think it is better if you get a "feel" for it. Starting off, beginners face problems with the first gear. So when starting off don't let go off your clutch in first gear when accelerating. It will prevent your car from stalling. Then just immediately switch to the second gear. This will cause slight clutch wear, but you will eventually get a hang of it with more experience.

[@theWolfXLIV]

Glad you mentioned about petrol vs. diesel in terms of stalling because a lot of driving instructors have a diesel car (eww) for their learners and actually teach them to pull away using no throttle, just feeding the clutch out! Ridiculous really because the learner's first car will almost certainly be a small hatchback with a 1.2 or 1.4 L petrol engine and what's the first thing they're going to do when they pull away? You guessed it, stall and potentially have a crash. Who likes diesel clatter anyway? And the acrid smell from the exhaust.

[@theWolfXLIV]

I kind of disagree there as a self-confessed diesel hater. One reason is that modern diesels of course are equipped with a particulate filter which makes the car only suited to longer journeys, i.e. A-road or motorway driving whereas many people are just popping down to the shops or going a mile or two to work or school every day. This is partly the car sales executive's fault for failing to mention this upon purchase and partly due to the government about 10 years ago (wrongly, in my view) pushing diesel powered cars. Plus the emissions even with the DPF are still bad, although the CO2 emissions and therefore the road tax may trick you into thinking otherwise. Namely NOx emissions

[@robotraptor3369]

Yep. im one of those new drivers who has just been taught in a diesel and told not to apply any gas when pulling away or on a hill start. just bought my first car, a petrol, and stalling like crazy, no idea what im doing. nearly had an accident today after stalling on a busy junction. really dangerous for instructors to be teaching people in diesel cars. basically their doing it because its easier and the student is more likely to get a first time pass which great for their driving school but not so good for the new driver who loses control of their new petrol car and ends up in a collision.

[@alexrobbins73]

This happened to me. I was taught in a diesel so I would always take off using only the clutch. When I passed I suffered as I would stall every time I would take off in first as I had a 1.2 petrol :(

[@jamietotten239]

Same, i stalled my car all the time at the start

[@azuraxvi]

I agree! A few years ago when I was learning, my instructor had a diesel car. Of course, after I passed, I had a petrol and I was so confused and frustrated as to why I was stalling all the time. I felt like an awful driver + the added pressure of stalling in situations where they’re waiting for you. I had to google why it was happening!!! A lot of the time it’s because diesels save more fuel because you don’t need as many revs to get it going. That’s why instructors have diesels

bit sometimes if u have a newer car like from 04 and up these cars have drive by wire which has a slight delay aftwr u hit the throttle. meaning it will start to move a xouple3secs after pressing gas. so its easy to miss the time and pull off clutch too early thinking the car was gonna move as soon as u hit the gas.

[@deepalijain803]

@@omarG19100 That is news to me. Thanks. I think I got to know no ow where I was wrong.

I can upshift once I’m going and I can slow down/downshift decently but starting without stalling always sucked and even when I got it into first and started moving it was a slow process.

[@ChaosCloud96]

don't really have an issue with stalling or hill starts anymore, thanks to buying my own car and practicing during COVID with my dad just waiting for my new test date now! however I had my first official lesson back and was talking to my instrucor about the whole using your heel as an anchor to find the bite point and that I couldn't do it due to my car having a high bite and the lack of flexibility afforded me at my ankle due to a achilles injury. He showed me another downside to it. when you push your foot down and use the heel as the anchor your foot tends to naturally slide meaning every time you do it your foot is slightly further back on the clutch pedal until you barley have any contact and thus have to re-set your foot. Not saying it is viable as it clearly is as load of people do it but I just find it fascinating how many different ways their are to drive and achieve the same outcome. PS your videos have been a great help

5:18 there's another driving instructor here on youtube conquer driving teaching the exact opposite. To not use your heel on the floor when handling the clutch because it makes you eventually lose grip of the clutch.

[@quininemarie4277]

Great video! Really helped me as clutch control is one thing i really need to practice. Keep releasing too quickly...🙄

[@Judgment]

I know one thing that helped me out tremendously was parking in the garage. Because now you're attempting to move forward (or in reverse) but with the restrictions of limited road - somewhat like a traffic jam, but no traffic. Once it dawned to me that I never stalled while doing this is when I realized where the biting point was and I haven't stalled since. That combined with anticipation and keeping your distance forces you to "ease" into the speed instead of the habitual "drive when the next car moves".

I just recently got into a small car crash because of me stalling into 1st. The thing is, I'm more or less decent when I'm weaving through traffic and when to downshift when I have to. First gear is literally the hardest concept I've gone through. I've figured out my bite point to some degree but I find myself being VERY nervous at stop lights, especially if I'm ahead of the crowd. I've been driving my mustang for a week or two now and I've gotten very comfortable which I think is the prime fault for my accident. I feel bad for the woman who was behind me though. If anyone here is going to buy a manual car, here's a tip: Learn to get out of first gear before anything else. Everything else will come naturally. Happy driving guys!

Archana T also when you are at traffic, just put your gear into neutral, take your foot off the clutch and put your hand breaks on. Then when the traffic is about to turn green, put your foot into the clutch, put it into 1st gear, take off the hand break as you are about to move and slowly take your foot off the clutch. Trust me it will prevent you from stalling at the traffic. That's what I did when I kept on stalling at the traffic. It really helped me

@@D93-w5q I wouldn't recommend using hand brake for hill starts, your car can move ever so slightly backward even when hand brake is on while on a hill. What I do is I keep my feet on the brake pedal and have a clutch on the spot when lights are about to turn green, then lift the foot from the brake and give a little gas so I get moving. This method cannot be done with low horsepower cars though

[@D93-w5q]

@@mussunmussun3536 then stay in gear 1, put your hand breaks on and keep your foot on the bitting point. Truss me you won't have a problem.

I'm a beginner and as same as many of us taught releasing clutch with the whole leg, thanks for the video cos cant feel my entire leg after even an hour of driving in traffic))

[@zoejaderobbins]

I’m having a lot of problems with stalling at junctions, I did my lessons in a diesel and I drive a petrol. I’ve only been passed a few weeks and I wished I had learnt in a petrol as I’ve never stalled so much in my life😂 people are too impatient which makes it 10 times worse

[@chanesteyn5087]

THANK YOU. YOU JUST MIGHT ACTUALLY HELP ME PASS MY DRIVERS TEST

I passed first time. Your videos have been very helpful. Keep it up bro! ❤

Thanks for the video it helped renew my desire to learn manual after many failed atempts to learn

[@mueffe1357]

I never hover my feet when I got my learners license. My instructor taught me to press and control the clutch without using the accelerator. You can move upto 20km/h just using the clutch. Only use first and second gear. Practiced a lot in a level road or empty parking lot. So many stalls but now I don't feel anything at all when stuck in a traffic jam. Lol

Mu Effe how the fck did u go up to 20km/h with just clutch ??

[@deathsmelody9452]

@@rh7732 yeah fr I was like wtf 😂 i can only go like 5 mph with just the clutch maybe he was downhill

These lessons are more than what you can receive from your instructor ,keep watching

[@MrJevman]

Great series of videos dude, you know your stuff. Well done 👍

Ty for this video, it helped me out with driving a manual transmission equipped car!

[@user-ld8dj7pp4c]

I was taught and passed to just use the clutch, very occasionally used gas so kinda worried about when I get my car lol

[@Matias-be5bi]

Stronger diesel cars can go without gas, but normal petrol cars usually Need throttle

[@MrCmon113]

That's no problem. When you can start without gas, starting with gas is super easy.

[@ellenorbjornsdottir1166]

gas it a bit

My last lesson I didn't stall at all which is good, just needs a lot of concentration. I'm usually too quick off the clutch because of panicking or feeling the need to hurry up when its clear. But my instructor said its quicker to go slower.

[@StaceySweetJones]

Count three seconds each second release the clutch gradually on the 3 second you can release it

[@rebeccajayatillake4362]

Woah thanks a lot. I'm learning on my own pretty much in an old jeep with some repairs as well. Today the vehicle jerked and LOL I thought something was wrong with the engine... I know kinda stupid. Your videos are so helpful. Thanks a lot...

[@vestre8586]

My first time I just made the wheels spin!

[@KingSadim]

Lots of UK cars have Hill Hold functions now, I don't ever use my handbrake now till I park up. Toughest part of manual driving is a steep junction on greasy roads when you need to move quickly.

The best advice for me was when you said keep your heel on the ground with the clutch. Now i dont make the same mistakes anymore.

[@bread8857]

0:45 omg I took a deep breath and thought that noise was my lungs. bad timing

[@yakataz]

I find it very useful, was wondering why my start was sort of hacky

[@ART-gn3ps]

Is there any ways I can practice how to release clutch faster? My instructor said that I should release the clutch not too slow or fast all the way out before using gas pedal. I feel like I missed something here because the car still have a little stalling and I don't know how am I suppose to raise the revs because I have to release the clutch first.

[@JJhoe6969]

ART trying slowly and smoothly releasing to the biting point then hold it for 2 secs while it moves forward then a steady slow stream of gas while pulling the clutch off completely smoothly

[@2knature.844]

Lat year i was facing stalling problem while starting petrol cars,This year facing stalling problems while shifting gears on disel engines😂😂.Finally a solution.👍

[@joelove1006]

Could you do a video on the diesel scrap scheme

[@Paynos]

For sure! Thanks for the idea

[@liamb4953]

very helpful vid, my issue is that i raise the clutch too quickly, i just seem to forget to slow that down during my lessons

[@ReD_738]

"don't like saying gas because it sounds American" 😂😂😂 same

[@toastyscoot]

Honestly this is what new manual drivers need. I’ve been afraid to be slow with my clutch but I guess that’s not the case
