  • That was really helpful, you have no idea how hard it is to find a video that is actually helpful on what you need to know on Youtube. Thank you so much.

  • Hope you get well soon. Nice video, but don't forget to put your seat belt on?

  • Im guessing you have a nissan micra

  • in brazil all the driving school cars have the revs a little bit raised.

    l know nothing about cars but basically:

    *release the clutch slowly till you feel the pedal starts vibrate(before stall).

    -finding this point you can release completely the footbrake and accelerate.

    this is what l've done everytime when l drive MT cars by the way l prefer AT or motorcycles

  • Very Useful Video for beginners !

  • nice one.thanks!

  • Was struggling with this technique...and was beginning to think driving was not for me.... : ( Watched your video the day before a driving lesson, and amazingly my driving had so improved. Thank you for your very clear and precise guidance. Hope you are feeling better.......

  • What a calm driving instructor!

    V good.

  • Thanks so much, I had my first lesson today and had real trouble finding the bite point.

  • Hope you are feeling much better now to give us more video because i need to pass my test

    ASAP

  • @ngozingadi useful video how are your lessons going or have you done the test already?

  • @Freesia120 I am aiming towards the end of April. Will let you know how it went

  • @ngozingadi wishing you all the best!! Go for it girl

  • Thanks for the tips. I have one question as a beginner, at the biting point should the car move slowly or should it be stationary? Thank you.

  • @phulei ideally, the car should move forward, especially on flat/downhill surfaces.

  • Get well soon Jim, great videos! I have a polo 1.1 S reg and I'm learning all about the clutch control as its COMPLETELY different to the peugot diesel I am learning in!!

  • Thank-you all for your kind comments on my little video, unfortunately since making it, I have been ill and unable to work or make any more videos. I will see what I can do later,once again thanks to you all.

    Jim

  • @DriverDoc Thanks for the video! Hope you are fit now!

  • god bless you!

  • That's really helpful, thank you! I wish you were my driving instructor.

  • Absolutely brilliant video. Keep up the vids man, was very informative.

  • Great vid ever since i remapped and chiped my ST the rev 's have been higher than what the dial displays -__- and because my cars lowered i cannot see the bonnet rise the concept of engine disconnected (down) etc. helped allot :)

  • i use gas after the biting point

  • what car is that?

  • Brilliant !

  • YESSS!!!!!!!!! Gnarly Video Bro....

    Finally found the vid. For the biting point! Thank u oh so much!!! This was a super helpful!! KUDOS! dude!!!! 

  • I fucking love you old man <3 thanks to your video i no longer stall my car in 1st gear anymore, God bless you and i hope you live up to 200 years :)

  • @DxBOY617 BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

  • By the by, have you thought about doing a video on how to do hill starts, rolling starts and a combination of the two? Hill starts and rolling starts on a gradient are something I find VERY difficult!

  • Thank you for this. My instructor has recently changed his diesel car to a new diesel car and many of his students (myself included) are having difficulty finding bite in the new car. As a result we end up stalling. I think the problem lies in the fact that we bring the clutch to bite FIRST before applying pressure to the gas pedal. Will try your advice this week when I have my next lesson and will let you know if I have any luck!
