Whizpeter:In traffic you clutch down fully and use your brake, no need to be changing gear endlessly. |

You can't do without number 4 on Nigerian roads; your car will always be rolling back on hills without applying clutch management technique. |

Jethrolite: The clutch suffers for it... Moreover if its an auto, I only need to use the brake unless the traffic clears a bit, then I would use the accelerator! |

#1.... not a car pro... but learned along the way.... never park your car without putting on handbrake..... if bumped hard... your transmission can be damaged. I guess it's the same for manual if parked in gear. |

MotoringNigeria: Some times your car keep rolling back. So you just have to do it. |

I don't understand your first point, how do one stop the vehicle from rolling over without engaging the gear?? hand breaks are Bullshits! and I rest my hand on the gear stick as much as I want,how heavy is ones hand to cause a glitch to the ball bearings?, I put my foot on the clutch as long as I want, and for years now have not had any issue resulting from t,dunno where your points are coming from though. 1 Like |

KingRex1: I don't mean cruising. Coasting involves applying and holding down the clutch while the vehicle is in motion. An example is after clutching down to change to a higher gear and clutch is still applied, no matter how small.

Ricmayak1: If clutch is not involved, what then is involved? Note there is difference between cruising and coasting. You can google the term coasting.

Recommended alternative for point number 4 is to find your bitting point. If you can find your bitting point, then you've not really perfected manual. |
