- Manual car clutch tutorial for beginners. How clutch works? The accelerator plays a big role too, but this video explains what happens when you raise the clutch pedal. If you are about to drive a manual car for the first time or you want to master take-offs and clutch control, watch this video. First gear clutch release and smooth transfer of the power to the wheels explained. What happens when we raise the clutch pedal in a manual car? A clutch in a manual transmission car is used to transfer power from the engine to the wheels. The clutch has two discs, one connected to the engine (shaft disc) and the other connected to the wheels (the clutch disc). The engine disc is the moving (rotating disc) as long as the engine is running, and the one that moves the wheels is the static or stationary disk. When you raise the clutch, the two discs will join, and if the clutch pedal is let upwards suddenly, you will jolt or stall.

Transcript: Never stole a manual car again. Let's break down what happens inside when you raise your clutch pedal. A manual car clutch system has two discs. One is a moving disc that's connected to the engine, and the second disc is a static disk that's connected to the wheels. Why do a lot of people stall and jolt when they take off? The moving disc will engage the stationary disc on contact. If you don't execute the clutch pedal release correctly, the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels will be abrupt. The tricky part is matching the speed of the engine with the speed of the intended takeoff. You have to be gentle with the release of the clutch pedal upwards to transfer the power from the engine to the wheels smoothly and avoid launching forward suddenly.
Practice a lot if you want to master a manual transmission clutch control and drive safely!
This is it. I always wanted to know how 😮
There you go!

Me too damn finally
@enriqueamaya3883Follow the hotdog onto the skewer. Fill your mouth with his meat and give thanks.
Learning experience for us all 😅
Short, informative, easy to understand, direct to the point. Well done mister.
Manual is so much fun istg
Yes but in a country like mine, Pakistan, auto is better in populated cities.
Not so fun in city traffic
@@gabrielgri In regular city traffic it's the most fun
@@spacepowerofficial1187Imo it's so annoying and I hate it already (had my first driving lesson yesterday)
I just drove a Manuel car today and it made me infinitely times grateful for an automatic. Manuel actually sucks
Ayo my father tried several times to explain me it, I guess we can understand better with simplified examples and images ❤
Glad it was helpful!
For those that dont know how to drive manual i will teach you now.
Step 1. Learn how to drive a automatic car. If you want better expirence so you are better at manual.
Step 2. Get a manual car
Step 3. Find an empty parking lot.
Step4. Start the car while you are in nuteral.
Step5. Press the clutch all the way in and hold it in, put the gear in 1st.
Step6. Slowley, take your foot off the clutch till you feel the cars start vibrating "you will have to keep your foot on brake till the car starts vibrating" when the car starts vibrating tap slowley on the gas tap after tap then when you feel you are moving give the car gas slowley when you start to roll take your foot completely off the clutch and there you go you are rolling in the manual.
Step7. Press the clutch in and shift to 2nd then slowley take yor foot off the clutch when fully off the clutch you can go on the gas then just repeat in the same way to go down the gears and up.
@@mohammadalmasalmeh6 alternative option: Take your drivers license in europe where it's all manual
@@mohammadalmasalmeh6 Thanks Man real helpful
If everyone knew this, there wouldn't be much work for mechanics and they'd go bankrupt LOL😅
True LOL
Maybe only in the US where automatic transmission is the norm.
In the rest of the world where manual transmission is the norm, all drivers know that releasing the clutch needs to be done gradually.
@enriqueamaya3883Sir, this is a Wendy's.
We need more shorts like this.
Terrible explanation of the actual parts at play, but for very early beginners, I think this video gives them the right idea!
Honestly I don't think this is even helpful for beginners. It hardly talks about how you have to balance the gas pedal and the clutch right at the bite point so that you take off smoothly.
What do you expect
Slap in a whole diagram of a gear box?
Ofmg!! I think I'm finally understanding that shii!! Gotta try it soon! Thanks
Now i understand the logic of using the clutch when braking and accelerating! Amazing vid!!!
Thank you so much
Ive known how to use a clutch and manual transmission, but I always wanted to know why it did what it did
You're most welcome
You have to also give it a bit of gas and revving up the engine whilst releasing the clutch
Of course! I was just explaining the clutch here
Greetings from Western Australia
In my car you can just hold the bite point and gas then
In diesel powered engine it's enough to just release the clutch, no need to accelerate on start.
@@ficacar99Basically it depends on the torque of the engine. Engines with higher torque has less need of revving before releasing the clutch pedal. Diesel engines are known to have much more torque than Otto engines.
I’ve never thought of it like this, I understand now! Wheels need to match the engine
Always appreciate a good animation on this topic. For a topic common as this, there are still not enough visual materials out there.
🙏
Wanted to know this, thanks
Love it bro
thank you so much for this upload !!!
Welcome
This is why rev matching is important❤
The skill finds its zenith at the hill start in conjunction with the hand brake...
Good Video👍
Thanks Jo 👍
Its a little harder for my manuel because it doesn't have a rpm speedometer.
Listen to the revvs and it's easy to judge the rpm after a while
Mine too
Im taking my lessons now im stil in knowing the rules and others things to follow when on the road but my father still sometimes(rarely) put me behind the wheel
My problem....when i do it slowly the car doesnt even move its stuck the same place(and before you said it the engine has up and running i put in the first gear)
But if i do a little force the car do what the car did in the video
I still didnt find the midterm
Cool !
Thanks
Welcome
Btw thats called clutch dumping
So the proper clutch pedal release can only be experienced and then learned for each individual motor, not taught. Since you would likely be releasing the clutch at a lot of different “motor speeds”
Yes and no. What you need to learn is the "bite point". That's where the clutch is engaged enough to get the car to move, and you can usually feel it on the pedal. Where the bite point will be depends on the car, engine, and how much you've revved up the engine, but the feeling of the bite point is always the same. The sound of the car changes too, since once you're at the bite point the RPMs will go down due to the clutch being partically engaged.
I found this out by playing a car simulator game 😂 (I’m preparing for my driving lessons)
😂
@@southrest city car driving home edition
I was just curious what it is that physically jolts the car when I'm stationary and in gear but let off the clutch without accelerating... Interesting
my main problem while learning to drive😢 the car won't stop jerking 😭 thank you so much❤❤❤
All it takes is practice. Don't give up!
@ThomasShelby274 so you drive on the streets without your license?
@@LyubomirIko yeah I'm proud of not living in europe or America 🙂
can i half clutch (feather the clutch) just like a motorcycle?
Yes mate, just to feel the friction point on take of and avoid high revvs before you release the clutch pedal completely
ok but like... why does launching clutch suddenly makes the engine die? i mean why cant they just make the car keep going even if i let go of the clutch? what would happen?
Why am I here? I already know how a clutch works 😭
Thanks for watching anyway
In Australia also
Drivers seat is on the right side just like in Indian
Manual its a little hard but if you learn it you a pro
manual is fun to drive
This ''Moving Disk'' is called a flywheel 😅
its broken down to laymans for beginners... lesser jargon more effective teaching concept and they can take on the proper wording after the fundamentals
Moving disc is actually the flywheel and the clutch cover(pressure plate) plus the six bolts holding them together.
If you stall it, This Overheates the clutch and causes damage overtime, this happens if engine RPM gets too lower and low and engine stops. NOTE: If engine RPM gets below x1500 the engine stops
Actually it stalls when it gets lower than it’s idle rpm 😉
Yeah, it is
How come it does not create friction at all?
It does. Everything that has a contact patch creates friction, which is why the engine and gearbox contains oil, to provide a film of oil between the components which reduces friction. In this case, the clutch has two main components, the friction plate and the pressure plate.
When the clutch pedal is engaged, the pressure plate disengages the friction plate from the flywheel. When the clutch pedal is slowly engaged, the pressure plate slowly engages the friction plate with the flywheel, which generates heat through friction.
That’s why riding the clutch burns it out
Where you from?
Probably his mom
We gave a hyundai i20 2019 that has started to smell like smoke in a hot sunny day and a rainy night at random bc of the friction the plates make. The repair can go up to 400€ only to get new plates. The ppl who drive this car drive carefully, it is rly a problem of the car.
BUY HONDAS bc our Honda jazz 2011 NEVER had a problem that occurred on it's own. It did have one problem, but it was bc it got hit on the back once.
Is having an internship with nasa is a big deal??
I dont get why so many people cant Drive a manual in my Country 80% of the drivers know this
Aha I get it
Ohhhhhhhh
australian south african?
Aint this the same deal with an automatic
automatic doesn't have clutch pedal
Dont be gentle, just push the gas
Never stall a manual CAAWHHrrr again
Just rev match it😅
I just want to put it out there that this is not how an actual clutch works. Although this works rather well for a learner to have a basic understanding of how the clutch works so they have an idea of what they are doing when they operate the clutch pedal.
How does it "actually" work?
@@bongibalfour1553 well it’s more sophisticated than just two steel plates rubbing against each other, let me tell you that.
??? That is "actually" how a clutch works. Don't confuse a clutch with a torque converter used in automatic transmission.
@@PanduPoluan are you kidding me? The actual friction disc is sandwiched between the flywheel and pressure plate, it is not just two solid wheels touching each other
@@davidgruen7423wElL aCtUaLlY 🤓
This car only have single gear
Hey, we do not know each other but I would like to tell u that despite all the bad that you have done in your life, GOD still loves you and wants you to be with him (GOD), all yoi must do is to trust in Jesus like how he would trust in parachute when jumping out of a plane and you must be willing to turn from your wrong doings and do what is good❤😊❤😊
Oh, the clutch and brake should cause some air bag exploding the car.
I mean, isnt that riding the clutch, though?
Bullshit. Have you ever driven a manual? If you do it as depicted you will not stall but jump like crazy. The way to do it is to rise smoothly to the biting point, hold it there, accelerate a tiny bit and only once the car is moving, fully release the clutch. When you start to move you may have to hold the clutch in the biting point for a good 3 seconds or so, and then when changing gears normally you can do with less "stop time". Don't be fooled new drivers!
Or just press the bloody accelerator pedal to the floor first 😅
😂😂 and then
this is the most confusing accent lmao
or you can drive an automatic because it's the 21st century
It only takes like 3 hours to learn manual 🥱 ( I can’t drive stick) 💀💀💀
