Crystal clear explanation, especially the uphill manual .. clutch-foot brake method .. God bless you

[jfkkwig]

Recently passed. Don’t love hill starts. Crystal clear, really really helpful. Stay blessed, keep up the great work.

The last method you showed in this video, first cluch up to the bitting point while pressing the brake pedal and then give gas can be applied to every situation. I use it all the time. Whether I stop car on a flat road or on a hill I bring the clutch to the bitting point while pressing the brake pedal then I give gas and car starts move forward nicely . That method prevents the car rolling backward in any road condition.

Great video, all variations clearly explained! 👍

Thanks for the tips. I struggle going uphill to meet a T junction leading to the main road. My car always rolls backward while I wait for the road to clear

I don't advise keeping one's leg on the clutch for that long when in traffic...

Personally i always switch to neutral then first gear when ready to move..

Nice video

My 01' impreza has long transmission and low idle (around 570 rpm), so when I do clutch brake method it still rolls down a bit, so when I let the brake I immediately give it some gas and lift the clutch a bit more
What a nice car for a begginer👍🏽

But on steeper hills it rolls down like crazy, so only thing that works effectively is clutch handbrake method

[xristinapitza]

i dont even live in the uk but ur videos are the most helpful bless your heart

[williamduncombe]

A really good method something. I will need to be more adjusted to as im insured on my brother's car but stalled a couple of times when going uphill
I often did this method in my refresher lessons and driving lessons in my instructors car but my main fear is still going uphill when traffic turns amber then green

[Simplesuccess]

Thank you soo much this helped a lot I passed my driving test with a car that had hill assist and now I don’t have it in my new car I was struggling a bit but Yh thanks this helped lots

[T.K.]

This is what I was looking for.

I drive a corsa that has an e-brake and I have no idea if it even has hill assist.

But its so hard to do the handbrake hill start when the car has an e-brake that disengages when you hit 1.5-2k revs. And if you are late on the biting point, it will just roll back x.x

[dimitriousdrake]

At the end of the video, you said the car would move forward without rolling back. You have to be very quick on the gas to stop it entirely from rolling back, I assume it's okay for it to roll back for a split second before moving forward. Many thanks

[dny_zexion]

this video is great, i bought myself a susuki swift(2005) petrol. But starrting with the thing is the only thing i can't manage. i just dont feel the car rumble when it gets to the biting point because of the little amount it actually pulls. When im on flat ground i just use gast first but when i am on a hill i definetly cant start without failing or rolling back just because with my foot on the brake i just dont feel the biting point.

[keepplayingnice]

The last technique using only the footbrake, does it also work on a steep uphill slope (45 degrees) or is there a higher chance of stalling?

[crisbrezzy]

For up hill starts, will the clutch burn holding it on bite point and revving over 1.5k rpm?

[aos_mkwii]

So in the second method 3:01 (hill assist) you start adding gas before bringing the clutch to the biting point and then slowly bringing it to the bitting point? Pls reply
