Yeah...I feel so fresh.

Honestly i understand where u are coming from ..i used to drive a manual car before , but i accidently tried an automatic car since i have not turned back ..and i will not go back ...it was like i was free from slavery or bondage .
most car manufacture are now designing dual gear box -i think its called triptronic gearbox where you can switch to the manual or automatic depending on the road conditions , i had it it in my toyota avensis 2003 .
for a place like Nigeria , automatic gear box will be ideal ..because our commuter and local roads are just too bad .
The only down side of an automatic gear box it takes more petrol and if it breakdown its hards to fix or report ..but saying that most manufacturere now gi´ve 10 years guarantee ..
have u tried an automatic car before ?

bros I control what I drive, not wat I drive controlling me, I Jst pray u never have gear problem on a lonely high way wen driving an auto car.

Ur instructor is a bad one! How can he tell u to immediately remove ur left foot from the clutch pedal u throttle It doesn't work it that.

The clutching system of both manual and automatic gear system works on the same principle. For automatic, when you have ur right foot on the brake pedal and engage the gear, you will feel the vibration. This signals that the gear is engaged n u can throttle without the car rolling back.

And for the manual, u clutch down u engage gear 1. Then gently release the clutch n at point while you're releasing the clutch gently, you'll feel the vibration. Hold the clutch at that level and simply,(without rush) press the accelerator pedal and the car moves without rolling back even in an uphill slope.

Before I forget, Congrats on ur new car

Maybe I omitted something . When you clutch down, press down the brake too before engaging the gear 1. Start releasing the clutch gently to the point you start feeling the vibration. Hold the clutch at that level and start releasing the brake (without even pressing the throttle, the car will start moving as if you are releasing the brake of automatic car)

When you remove your right foot from the brake pedal and throttle, remove your left foot from the clutch pedal (It is not a good practice to clutch and throttle at the same time - coasting). Try it again and thank me later

Emmanuelgalazy:
what happens when u are releasing the brake of automatic car

Nneka123:

Some car gurus here would not be happy about this....

I have personally seen a 2012 Peugeot 607 with 6speed manual tranny....

So what is this one saying!??

I love manuals, I love stick-shifts, autos are terribly boring to drive and are for sissy's....

LOLZ


From what i see on tv, the cars are driven via a controller with the driver selecting gears as he moves
However the progression is automatic

youngice:
research

egesie:
Nothing beats a stick shift, I don't want a car deciding when to change gears for me when m not brain dead, I mean don't u like the feel of being in control?

Anyone who says otherwise hasn't pushed a manual tranny car hard in gear 3, if u hv then u knw u can't get that heavenly feeling in auto
