Excluding the hill start and I mean more than a light slope. In that situation I use the e-brake to get to bite point then accelerate and a controlled release of the e-break as clutch engages the drive line. Also where I live they like being 2 in off your rear bumper so some roll back scares them so they stay farther away.

Not even a mistake it's called engine braking

@@pcpeasantry3008 Well that's right, but if you don't mean to enginge brake then it could be called a mistake, also you are forcing the clutch and brings a sense of uncontrolled driving. Tho' it's very easy to fix it, just brake a bit to get slower and then you're at it.

Well you can shift without the clutch and be perfectly fine. But that is not a beginner move to do. And trying it very fast while racing will probably blow a synchro. Can shift with no clutch in the slow speed driving easy. Not the best tip for a beginner.

Yeah thats not a bad way to start from a hill. Easy way to get used to that for sure.

Many modern cars have hill assist these days though and you're much better off using your foot brake. As you take your foot off the brake and move it to the accelerator it holds the brake for a few seconds and releases it automagically as your car starts moving forwards.

@@ArminGrewe Sure, but on the off chance you ever need to drive an old one or one with a malfunction, the skill is useful.

Mark Lajeunesse yeah but you can rest your hand in ff wheel drive because the transmision is not conected exacly with driveshaft

I always rest my hand on gearshift. Didnt know it was a bad practise

from what ive always heard from mechanic mates is that it doesn't actually cause any excessive wear, unless you have an old trans with a plastic plate. but idk, im not an expert and they're just apprentices.

zach actually that's not entirely true within itself. I have a truck that the shifter actually goes directly inside the transmission and moves the gears around. The transmission actually comes up inside the cab so you can actually see this when you're driving. If you rest your hand on the shifter it will wear out the gears and the forks on the end of the shifter plus it can actually cause the gears to grind together. It's that style transmission where the thought of resting your hand on the shift is bad originally is from. Granted that's one of the first transmission designes that was popular. The idea is still there even with the new ones as it does put extra force on bushings and other parts.

BAD MECHANIC WILL SAY (Story by the DSG) ME: is it bad to rest my hand on a shifter? MECHANIC: it's totally ok to rest your hand there. 2 MONTHS LATER ME: something is wrong with the transmission.

I appreciate the crib notes. However they are brakes. Breaks would be bad.

Number 3 Is a lie, theres no such thing if you leave your hand on the shifter, its gonna damage you’re transmission, Ive disassembled manual transmissions before and the gear shift stick is bolted on to the transmission with a plate, if you’re planning on putting 150 pounds on that thing then yes, thats not okay, but your 3 pound hand wont do anything, stop.

Thanks

ThinkkOps yeah I figured my paperweight hand couldnt do much damage lol

If you stay off the clutch 150k plus...

@@BrosFOURRSpeed clutch should last way longer than that. Have a '94 with 200k miles and original clutch

Driving instructors for normal driving in a manual just do the basics. If you drive on track, or performance settings, you'll learn these tips quick. Better to know how to really drive these then just by the books lol

fr this is in a advanced driving course? It's like the basics of basics when driving a car... Or else the gear shift will be bumpy

I didn't know driving instructors who taught using manual shift vehicles even EXISTED (at least not in the USA), since the purpose of driving school is typically to prepare a driver to pass a test to receive their driver's license. Here in the US you are not required to know how to drive manual, so every driving school I know of only uses automatics and usually smaller cars because they are easier to parallel park (which is part of the exam here in NJ).

... FYI when you get REALLY good at rev matching, you can actually shift without using the clutch. It will "pop in" to gear when you're at just the right RPM for the speed you're going in the gear you're trying to shift to.

@@dr.bunterhidenbrobruh5502 It's really funny they don't teach manual... In Brazil we have automatic cars, but as they are more expensive there are much more manual cars, so basically everyone knows how to drive manuals. Regarding switching gears without pressing the clutch pedal, yeah, it's very possible and I used to do it sometimes in my older car, but if you do it wrong it will wear the clutch, so I prefer to be safe than sorry.

Rev matching doesn't really change from car to car, it's the same concept. But it might feel different or be easier in different models!

if you downshift at the right time and let the clutch out slowly the car won’t at all jerk and you won’t damage the clutch or transmission

@@ilovecheesecake516 Yeah that works if you brake first then downshift, but if you want to use engine braking, you cannot do that in big engine V8 car.

@@KarthikVenkataraman If you like stopping abruptly just drop into first right before the car stops rolling and continue. Engine braking isn't variable like the pedal, it only slows so fast.

#6- Learn how to spell brakes

billy bilo I'm from Canada there's a good selection of manual and automatic people drive both and it's so easy to drive a manual I don't know why Americans act like its so hard it's not.

Ryan Scherbluk, I’m from the U.K., I love Canada! Peace bro.

billy bilo ikr and you also have those who act like it is hard, i personally learned it in one go and the jerkines went away very quickly too

Panda’s Motorsport channel. Yes bro it’s as easy as breathing bro. I’d rather be in control than drive a auto

That's because in America it *is* "cool" (ish) to drive a manual. Automatics are standard here by an extremely large margin. (I only found ~7 manual cars across 12 dealerships; 7:~1,500) and *none* of them were current, or last model years. The most modern one was a 2016 mazda

That's what rev matching is....you have to blip the throttle to get the RPM to match, that's how it's done. Some cars have an auto rev match feature to do that for you, but in a vehicle without that feature, this is how it's done. I agree on the next two points! But the button is there to release the hand brake, it's fine to pull it up, hardly any friction to wear it out.

@bobroberts6155 I'm from the Czech Republic and I also don't think most people rev match. But funnily enough I don't know anyone who presses the button on the handbrake when pulling it either. It's so typical to hear the sound of the rachet in any car that stops to park even when just walking by. And yet I have never heard anyone say a word about the ratchet wearing out ever and some people drive decades old cars. I think people count the amount of clicks to judge how much the brake is engaged. I do. Must be a UK thing haha I also think it might be a better idea to teach new drivers that when in doubt, make sure you press the brake pedal first and foremost. I don't think the clutch is paramount in this scenario as it is in normal stops. So what if the engine stalls. Better than crashing because you couldn't find the clutch in time and thought both pedals needed to be pressed at the same time. People who have no idea how their car works even on a basic level are prevalent on the road, and they will believe it when told both pedals have to be pressed at the same time. Sure the engine running could theoretically maybe extend the braking distance a little bit (it shouldn't if one really steps on it) and maybe the engine could cause the wheels to lock up easier in bad adhesion conditions. The risk assessment will vary. Where I live it's mostly dry and not freezing mostly so I think the clutch is unimportant.

That is definitely true, you will be the winner watching the car sit at the shop!

I hope to learn standard soon, can you tell me how to rev match from your personal experience?

The easiest way is to blip the gas as soon as you get on the clutch, down shit right as the RPMs start coming down and slowly release the clutch

@@Internetgamer420 ah okay, thanks man!

@@karamalqussiri6533 Police doesn't watch after that at all. It's taught that way because of the weather conditions for the most part. I have snow for 4 months in a year and basically if you're out of gear in snow/ice you won't ever be able control the spin coz there is no torque available at all. They teach you to stay in gear for as long as possible because a car w/o gear can spin out quite easily under braking, having the clutch engaged equalizes axles and gives you a vector + torque if you ever need it. I can go down to about 15 kph in 4th. That comes from times before ABS and stabilization were common and drivers had to control those aspects themselves. If you don't have assists - good luck braking on ice w/o a spin if you don't know how to do it right.

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I'm from Estonia. When I came to US I laughed my ass off when I wanted to pick a car and in the options they had automatic and PROFESSIONAL. That's all you need to know about stick and culture of driving in the US. Didn't know that like 70% of drivers in Estonia are so highly regarded to be considered professional drivers lmao. We have a special mark on your license if you CAN'T drive stick (if you completed training on auto car only). Check out my comment below too to understand why keeping the car in gear for as long as possible is taught. I'm somewhat sure you're in a snowless state. Also, the tips you've done are for a big part applicable to US stick cars which are usually either an old unbreakable brick you really can't do anything to or it's a performance car and then your tips are applicable. Rev matching is so unnecessary in a 80 bhp car, the clutch will always outlive the engine (coz it's some sort of a 1.2L with variable angle turbo lol), I can do shifts up and down w/o the clutch at all, but why bother if I'm not in a race, just ease off the clutch slowly lol. Resting the hand is ok because manufacturers long know of this habit and usually the weight is held by a supportive structure and not the mechanism of the gearbox or the actual rod that moves the gears is not directly connected with the shift stick at all.

It's not that we're bad at driving manual, it's that manual cars are rare in the U. S, so few Americans drive them. Generally those of us who do drive a manual are car enthusiasts and drive as good as any other person or better. Which feels odd writing as its really easy.

But, what if you're the American friend and it's your manual transmission car? Or cars, plural? Or cars plural and truck? And motorcycles, plural? And custom built go carts with manual shifted motorcycle engines? Plural. Hmm... 🤔

50K Frenzyy Yea. If you are on the track or racing ect, to get down a gear the fastest and most efficient way possible would be double clutchin. If you are just driving regularly a proper clutch release will work just fine. Just not as quick is all

Well to my knowledge if you downshift and dont release clutch to early then whole rev matching is not needed I didnt knew what was rev matching until last week and since I am not racer I always let car brake a bit and then shift down and slowly release the clutch so it will not rev so hard and have a that bump forward but I am trying to learn it since my car is weak and when I want to overtake somebody i have to downshift

You can tell when the car needs to downshift. I've never had to memorize RPM's or anything.

Good tip! I would recommend that for sure!

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I’ve learned the hard way. Parking brakes can fail.

To be fair I started rev matching right after getting my licence in my car that has no rev counter, and I can do it fairly well. I think it's advantageous for me and my car in particular and when done properly, it minimizes wear on the whole drive train, hence dual clutch automatics do it. But I agree that most people with most cars will get away with no rev matching for all of their lives. We drive mostly manuals here and I don't know almost anybody who rev matches. I'd wager it's mostly car enthusiasts and older people who are used to old trucks and/or tractors with unsynchronized gearboxes. Rev matching improperly could on the flip side likely increase wear of everything and I doubt most regular mortals will bother mastering it. The other tips are far more important.

Sven Blank hey now, some of us really are great at driving stick

Great tip! I used the handbrake technique a lot when I was in a pinch

In the UK, where most people learn to drive with manual transmission, you are taught to apply the handbrake before you put it in neutral, or, if it's only a brief stop, keep it in gear with foot on the brake and clutch disengaged, ready to pull away.

That’s a good tip if your car doesn’t have hill assist. If it does, when stopped while uphill when you engage clutch and throttle the brake holds momentarily (like the old school e-brake trick, without using it).

@@rickconstant6106 my handbrake is bad so i just use clutch and gas

That's like laughing at someone when they reference a hill as an incline

You’ll have to let us know how that works out for you next race! 😆

ouch... That definitely wouldn't have been a good day

Very nice!! Even if you know it, always good to brush up on some tips

Let's say I'm in Gear 5 and I want to turn a corner. I brake and change to gear 2. Do I need to Rev match when I shift to gear 2? Or can I just brake till the car wobble and change to gear 2?

Don't have rev Match in my car, well automatic rev match at least

Thanks for sharing! I always park in gear, the cars I’ve owned have to have the clutch in to start up and push in clutch, put to neutral and start up! Prevents movement.

Maybe not forever. But at least longer then if you don't do these tips ;)

clutch doesn't like women

marklintwo clearly never met a woman that can drive

Craig Southam LOL 😂 you know like 99.9% women can’t drive..

You do realise driving a manual is normal in Europe. Only Americans think it’s cool or skilful

misscretin there is a difference between driving a manual and being Good at driving a manual

Thanks. On my motorcycle and dirt bike, its pretty easy to shift without using the clutch. I've only tried a few times in the car. Pretty easy to do, but it takes more concentration

That is because the bikes and big rigs have so-called "dog boxes". Doing clutchless shifts on a synchromesh transmission is more tricky. In the dog boxes, there's play between the dogs which allows you to shift without precise rev matching; in the synchromesh trannies you don't have that and doing it wrong will put excessive wear on your synchros.

ever thought of putting a space after a comma

Hemi power also handbrake should be used instead of footbreak when waiting at lights

Brandon Sayers I know. you're stopped, why shine brake lights to let anyone else know? it's not their business

Yeah that is a technique to use even in an auto! But definitely helpful in a manual.

haha dang! Glad you have helped tho!

Lol!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

without an actual clutch disk involved though

Yessss!

Thought I was experiencing deja vu

@@julians9362 the most important part, too.

I always do it you know it gives me a great sense of luck when i come back and its still there with all the bumpers intact.

I only learned to drive a manual recently, and I always park with just handbreak but in neutral. Is it really important to put it in 1st or reverse?

@@RacecarsAndRicefish My brother does that. I usually do the opposite which is leave it in gear and do not pull the parking brake unless I'm on an incline. The reason I always place it in gear is because years ago I pulled the parking brake on a car of mine on an inclined driveway leaving it in neutral and it rolled down the driveway with the parking brake engaged. Bad brakes or whatever, it scared the crap out of me so from that point I've ALWAYS parked in gear.

@@RacecarsAndRicefish you can do that yeah but sometimes (on older cars usually) the handbrake cannot hold the car. By leaving it in 1st that locks the wheels meaning that it is harder for the car to role away. Btw remember to take it out of gear before starting the engine again because sometimes i start it and the let out the clutch, if i did that in 1st it would obviously stall the car.

@@cowboy4378 ahhh, nah mate, that's not how it works. It doesn't lock the wheels at all. All it does is leave the axle connected to the engine. So the only thing stopping it is the compression in the cylinders.

Yeah that’s a good point!

lol those teeth are never going to wear out. Not enough friction/heat to damage them. So it won't effect anything. Maybe in 40 years. But by then the whole car is probably broken down anyways

exactly lol

Austin Lee this is me too. Lol 2000 mustang coupe. Had it for 3 years now and am at 300k miles right now. Never really had any issues lol

That's awesome to hear!! Congrats on the manual, they are definitely a lot of fun to drive!

In America, you don't learn how to drive in a manual. So for anyone learning, these are helpful. If you already know, great, but not everyone does.
