This video is about 7 Things You Should NEVER Do In a Manual Transmission Car!

Also, don't drive off the edge of a cliff. This will definitely damage the gearbox.

Tips for starting up a hill:
Step 1.) release the brake with the clutch in, in 1st gear.
Step 2.) roll and smash into the person behind you
Step 3.) explain that the YouTuber told you not to use the clutch or you’ll hurt it

Italian here: I never had an automatic vehicle so I always drove manual. Some of the points are right, but some are a little bit too much, like resting your hand on the gear stick. You are right that it can damage the gear box, but only if you push...and the damage is near to nothing, compared to, for example, grinding gears. Just enjoy manual shifting, do not feel the pressure of other cars and take your time.

"never brake without engaging the clutch" nope. Engine braking is important. It helps you slow down faster and save your brake rotors. Brake, then push in the clutch as the engine RPM drops below 2000 or so. That way you get good engine braking without causing any harm to the drivetrain.

engaging clutch before changing gears is just like pulling your pants down before pooping

Just a tip for begginers. R stands for race. The car goes automatic and its so fast then.

Edit: I just visited my old YouTube account almost 4 years later and... HOW THE F*** DID I GET 10K LIKES!?

When I first learnt to drive, I remember I was bit confused about the right gear. My friend told me your vehicle will tell you which gear she wants. I applied this trick to both car and scooter and it became easy. Actually the engine noise and stiffness are the indicators.

Watching this was like watching a cheap horror movie where no one on screen does or says anything right and we're all just laughing the whole time at how bad it is 😆

If you touch the shifter too long: DEATH
If you rest your foot on the clutch: DEATH
If you release the clutch too slowly: DEATH
If you don't park in gear: DEATH
If you drive a manual: DEATH

You begin to doubt the seriousness of this video when you realize there's someone operating the pedals wearing high heels.

I lost braincells and Iq points watching this

My major disagreement here is using your parking brake at a red light or on a hill. Why use your hand brake? If I'm going to be at a light for more than a few seconds, I always shift to neutral and hold with the brake.

instructions unclear, accidentally learnt how to drift

[ovpscss]

"Never grind gears" NO WAY, I THOUGH IT WAS GOOD TO GRIND THE GEARS, THANK YOU MODER MUSCLE FOR YOUR ADVICES

[jakethebard]

“Never park in neutral” okay mr. Smarty-pants, explain to me how I’ll use my remote start when my truck is in gear 🤣😂

[massspecguy]

Never brake without engaging clutch ... YES and NO !! At high speed emergency braking, use engine braking (in addition to the brakes) and then engage clutch once vehicle speed is down to reasonable speed.

[mingusog]

Changing gears causes wear and tear on the gearbox. Simply leave that car in first everywhere you go to prevent this from happening.

[sharperguy]

You know what really grinds my gears? Shifting without using the clutch.

edit: YES I KNOW ITS TECHNICALLY POSSIBLE I HAVE ABOUT 100 PEOPLE TELLING ME

When braking, you should use your clutch pedal just before stalling the car. While in gear the car holds itself a bit so it is safer to brake while on a gear. If you press the clutch before braking, nothing will hold the car so it will be much more dangerous and unstable to brake.

Also, don't change from 5th gear to reverse because even though it's faster than waiting till you're in first gear, you could cause a slight damage to the gearbox
