    @@ZONDOdriving Compared to the rest of the country I would say a lot more people use manuals daily where I live. Just wish more driving schools offered it. I had to learn how to drive on an automatic and didn't like it. To me (even in newer economy cars) automatics have a weird throttle response. Sometimes it feels like the accelerator is slipping but really the car's just changing gears. Sorry long response, but channels like yours are why I'm driving a manual a lot smoother compared to when I started, so thanks!

    Thank you for the tutorial, I have been struggling with a bouncing/jerky car due to releasing the clutch and not holding before applying more gas. I have concerns about that because I have fears it would be deemed bad control to apply lots of gas. Would you be able to confirm whether I would be fine to add more gas to prevent a jerky car even if it’s louder

  • @ZONDOdriving

    Hi. When adding gas, if you don't add more than 2000rpm when moving off you should be fine. Any more than that may be a bit excessive. Also, you wouldn't get a fault unless adding too much gas made the car move in a way which you didn't want it to. They might talk to you after the test about Eco driving but generally it's not classed as a driver fault. Hope that helps.

    Can somebody explain something to me. I went with a new instructor and he's car is VW Diesel. This is one of the modern cars. Anyways I noticed there was no handbreak and I didn't have to add gas. I just lifted the clutch and it was moving by itself. This is all good but I have come from a petrol car where I had to find the bite and add gas. Also this new car had a hill assist mode where it stopped the car for me.. This is all well and good but I didn't enjoy the experience. I can't explain it but it felt really weird and "fake" like I wasn't in control of the car compared to my other instructors petrol car. I don't know if u should go back to my old instructors car or learn from this new modern car

    Some cars are just easier to drive than others. If you can drive your old instructor's car, then you can drive most cars. Diesels have more torque so are easier to move off using just the clutch and if it's got an electric handbrake, then it'e even easier because they release themselves when you're at the biting point.

    Manual gearboxes will be extinct in 5-10 years (in 1st world countries). They are outdated and pointless (Auto and DCT outperform them already). Great video however for people who want to learn a manual whilst they are still around.

    Manual gearbox is the best in terms of realibility. Automatic are not reliable especially CVT.
