Pushing The Clutch Down For Every Brake - Is It Right? by Wisegeek01(m): 6:54am On Dec 23, 2014 |
Been Driving on manual for a while now, I've started to doubt my driving technique. This is currently how I slow down: 1. Push clutch down 2. Apply brake 3. Come to a stop, or pop back into gear I don't touch my brake pedal unless my clutch pedal is on the floor. I've been doing some reading now and it seems like the proper method to slow down is to apply the brake first until you reach a low speed, then pushing down the clutch before coming to a complete stop to avoid stalling. Is my technique so bad enough for me to change? Or what's the proper way to use the clutch both for Engaging and disengaing gears or Stopping, To avoid wear and tear" 1 Like |

I have been driving manual for some time too. I use same method as you. If you press the break first, the engine will go off. 1 Like |

You can just make moderation between your usual practice and what you've just read. Meanwhile,I love your usual practice of pressing the clutch first because it's much likely to change the gear. 1 Like |
