    Have you ever wondered what is happening inside a car when you press the clutch pedal? Or why do you need to press the clutch pedal before you shift gears in a manual transmission car? This video gives you logical answers to these questions. At the end of the video, we will also understand the crucial role played by the clutch in an uphill start.

      I mean, when you consider how the interworkings of the system operates, it's really a bunch of simple systems working together. There's nothing about an engine, transmission, or clutch that are really that complicated, it's just that they work together in a larger, more complex system. The actual principles being applied and the science behind how they work have been known for thousands of years, meaning the only thing stopping us from having vehicles like this beyond a few hundred years ago was the ingenuity of someone willing and able to put them together.
      While I don't understand how most things work, it's easy to understand how this works and that shows just how simple the design really is.

      @@TLC7 A V is correct, manual transmissions really aren't that complicated, generally speaking. A typical 5-speed is pretty straightforward - with a little knowledge, it's quite easy to identify which gears are which just by playing with a model of the internals. Rebuilding one is time consuming, but again not particularly difficult (of course, given the proper tools - that's the hardest part is having the right tools - and the most expensive).

      Cars now are built with so many distractions --- navigation touch screens, control touch screens, hands-free cell phones with voice recognition and voice-synthesized text readers, dozens of almost identical buttons on the steering wheel and console, dash and so forth --- that the manufacturers now tell us we can't live without electronic compensation devices such as "adaptive" cruise control, blind spot monitors, rear-view cameras, and the rest. When I learned to drive, there were a handful of controls --- basic operation such as brake, clutch, and throttle pedals, steering wheel, lights, wipers, turn signals, lever controls for the heater, air, and defroster, one knob for the radio (on, off, and volume, plus preset buttons, no need to fiddle with the knob on the right), and a toggle for the day-night mirror. Everything clearly and logically laid out, no need to take your eyes off the road. No distractions from the primary task of driving the car.

    at about 5:25 : The partially released clutch acts as a brake…. This is true… however, when stationary uphill NEVER use the clutch at its "sweetspot" to stop from rolling. This is VERY bad for the clutch as it causes incredible wear AND heat!!
    However, to show how an uphill-start can be performed it it is pretty good. Although, I find the use of the handbrake easier, more control.

      The handbrake method must always be used. "Riding the Clutch" leads to premature failure and shuddering & its replacement is quite costly. If you have to pull away on steap hills often, then rather get an automatic. Or start off down hill rather than uphill & use a detour to get to your destination - your clutch will last much much longer & you'll save a lot of money in the long run.

    Actually, step #1 for anyone I teach manual transmission driving, is to do that partial release of the clutch trick, feel it bite, release a little more slowly, and the vehicle will start to move without applying the gas. Like when an automatic transmission car idles forward. Eliminates the fear of killing the engine at a stop, and helps in learning when to apply the gas.

    This video is excellent. It illustrates and explains, in a layman's terms, exactly how a clutch functions. The sequence of the information presented, the terminology used, and the illustrated working diagrams are outstanding. If school teachers and the God awful textbooks we use could present information and teach this way, we would all be so much smarter.
