my instructor taught me to drive in a ford fiesta diesel, never used gas to take off, and now after stalling multiple times at traffic lights on a slight minimal hill, im literally getting panic attacks from starting to move off in my crappy 2002 nissan almera

Bought a 2008 clio petrol, can't drive it to save my life, was raised driving 2 - 3 ltr diesel jeeps, great video for new petrol drivers.

Thanks for the upload, it has been very helpful. I just passed my test in a diesel and have bought a petrol. My confidence was really knocked as I have been stalling occasionally when moving off, which hadn't happened since my early lessons. This was very well explained and I'm much more confident now that I have put this information to use :)

I have passed years ago, but I am only used to diesel cars. I am getting my first petrol car and I have never driven a petrol before and I heard it's a lot different. Thank you so much for the tips!

This is a great video lesson. Well, I like to drive a petrol car more than diesel. I was passed on petrol car and the clutch was really low. I believe that good clutch is the most important thing for the good drive of a petrol car. Greetings from Croatia.

Excellent video this will help me on my test in next two weeks

i learnt a lot from your video, thank you so much!..

[HerrEngelsman]

Cheers mate. I learnt in a more modern car and it was also a merc. The clutch feels a lot more forgiving than the car I bought after passing (peugot 107). In the former it's like I can get the bite point, add gas, and move up off the clutch in a couple of seconds. I'll try actually holding the bite point a lot longer now and adjust as slow as I need to cone up off of it too.

[odoometv]

i fail my test two weeks ago just because I stall on a hill and the car roll back a little bit..hv a got another test coming on in three weeks nd hope to make it up this time..thanks for tips

[qazizahor]

Very nicely explained. The problem is nowadays instructors and driving schools teach in diesels for a higher pass rate. I never gave gas for moving off or pulling off. My whole lessons were based on just leaving the clutch fully after the bite to move off and never ever used the handbrake except when parking orfor emergency brake manouver.I passed on first attempt but now Im driving a nissan pixo 2009 petrol and Im having nightmares. I have to kinda start from the beginning now and I feel as if im a newbie who never passed lol. Its easy to apply handbrake when at hills and then move off after gas and bite but my question is how do i manage driving behing slow moving and frequent stopping traffic on a hill. I mean do I still have to apply handbrake every second for moving off or i there a way without handbrake because I have 2 feet not 3 for the brake too ☺. If you can do such a video it will be highly appreciated or drop a link below if you already have.Thank you for all the wonderful videos and help
