Driving a manual car has some unique perks. But, there are some problems too and car stalling issue is one of them. Every engine has an RPM (a.k.a. stalling speed) where it does not have enough power to overcome the pumping loss caused at the time of switching the engine on. The speed limit for this condition to occur varies from one model to another. However, it remains between 300 and 750 rpm for most vehicle

Clutch Mechanism of a Manual Transmission Car

Understanding how the clutch works is a vital part of figuring out why the manual transmission cars stall. The component has two solid discs and works as the connecting link between the engine and the gearbox. It links engine’s output to the transmission’s input shaft by creating a firm lock between them at a 1:1 ratio. It means that one turn of the engine will yield one turn of the input shaft.

You can disengage the clutch by depressing the pedal. It disconnects the discs from each other, allowing the engine to turn without affecting the transmission.

Why Does the Car Stalling Problem Occur?

Slowing down a manual car requires the engagement of the clutch, which locks the rpm of the engine and the wheel. The RMP ratio depends on the gear locked in the transmission.

When the car is about to stop, the wheel speed drops and closes to the car stalling speed limit. The engine will start to stall at this point as it has to struggle against the pumping loss and the resistance of the wheels and the drivetrain. When the car goes slower than that RPM limit, the engine stalls and fails to generate any power.

A fully-engaged clutch works as a bridge between the engine and transmission (and with the components of the drivetrain too). So, when the engine spins, it affects the wheels, axle, and transmission. If one component of this chain stops working, it will stall every other part connected to it unless the clutch is engaged. So, when you try to stop the car with an engaged clutch, the car will stop because the engine’s RPM will drop below the required speed limit.

How to Prevent the Car Stalling Issue?

There are two simple ways to solve this problem. They are:

Depressing the Clutch – It will break the lock between the engine and the transmission. It will prevent the car from stalling since the engine will work separately even if you stay in-gear.

Depressing and Releasing the Clutch – In this method, you will have to shift the gear to neutral after depressing the clutch. Then, you will need to release the clutch. Doing so will not break the connection between the engine and the transmission but the input shaft won’t be in touch with the output shaft or wheels because of the neutral gear. It will allow the engine to rotate without putting any impact on the transmission.

Whats your take?

Whats your take?

your heading doesn't allign with the discussion, you are talking about stalling in manual transmission not vehicles in general.

Besides, how many Nigerians would pick a 2017 C63 S with 7speed manual transmission. your guess is as good s mine 1%

many would pick a corolla or hilux with 6 speed manual though

You can disengage the clutch by depressing the pedal.

I don't know why I'm stuck with this statement for two days now

Depressing the pedal should mean slamming it down, right? Which should engage the clutch

I'm about to get a manual car, first time , I need all the help

Mumu talk. You are comparing yourself with people that drive Automatic cars?
People that drive automatic cars cant say they are Real Drivers.
Give an Automatic Car Driver a Manual car they will tell you they can't drive the car.
And to such people, I say go and learn how to " Drive a Car" because you only know how to "move a car" which even a toddler can do by mere keeping his/ her leg on acceleration pedal.

So you may know, the Primary idea behind making Automatic cars was to ease the issue of engaging gears for handicaps and "seemingly lazy women" who found engaging gears cumbersome. Over time, more and more lazy men like you( who can't drive) have found solace in Automatic cars.
Any day, any time I will choose a Manual Car over an Automatic.
I have and feel a sense of power and control over the car when I engage gears.... That's Manly pride which Lazy Automatic drivers can never have.

Driving a manual car get one kine feeling of satisfaction you can never get in automatic.....

Meanwhile if you stay in OSOGBO or IBADAN and need a driving school to learn (Both Manual and Automatic), or you already know how to drive buh need a driving school certificate at the lowest rate ever ...

nothing new in d OP post, they just normal driving techniques. You nailed it. Too low RPM at idle can also cause stalling.

this is not the issue bro.... The issue is how to move a manual car that is at a full stand still (maybe due to traffic light) on a slope without the car rolling backwards and bashing the car behind you? This is one thing I'm yet to learn to do effectively in a manual. I always pray I don't have to pass by a sloppy area with traffic.

What I do
Engage ur hand brake
Clutch down when its time to move
Engage ur gear and accelerate a little
Disengage handbrake

Alternatively
Just use ur clutch as a kind of brake(can't remember the technical name) while u rev ur engine, but this pattern wears ur clutch out
