FACEBOOK: / guidaoggi HILL START – USE OF CLUTCH, BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR – how to do it with a DIESEL CAR One of the first difficulties to overcome when you start driving a car is starting. Getting it to come out smoothly, without jerks, can also require numerous attempts. Once you have learned to start on a flat road, you will also need to learn to do it on a slope, that is, you will need to learn to do the dreaded hill start. In this video I will explain the trick to being able to simply do a GOOD hill start with a diesel car, without making the vehicle go backwards and without stalling the engine. Let's get started!! Ninety percent of the cars in driving schools are diesel; for various reasons. One of these is that starts with this type of engine are easier to do. In this video I will therefore focus on the diesel car, because that is probably the one you will take your driving test with. Summarizing what I explained in the video on the use of the clutch, the sequence of things you can do to perform a normal and good start with a diesel car is this: lift the clutch up to the disengagement point, that is, up to the point where the vehicle starts to move. At that precise point, the clutch pedal must be locked, and keeping it locked you must start to accelerate a little. We keep everything like this for about ten meters, and once we have reached a sufficient speed, we will completely release the clutch without any problems. In normal starts, you will therefore have one foot on the clutch, ready to lift it, and one foot on the accelerator. But if the road were on a slope, uphill in our case, with our feet on these pedals we would have a problem, that is, that the vehicle would go backwards. One foot needs to press the brake, to keep the vehicle still, waiting to be able to start. But when we release the brake to move our right foot onto the accelerator to start, if we are not quick to find the point to release the clutch, we will have the result that the vehicle will start to go backwards, with the possible risk of even hitting the vehicle behind us. Seeing the vehicle go backwards, instinct will make us lift the clutch too quickly, and even too much, with the obvious result of the engine turning off. The solution to easily starting uphill with a diesel car is very simple. What you need to do is this: you will obviously have one foot on the clutch, which will currently be down, and one foot on the brake, to prevent the car from rolling backwards. Keeping the brake pressed, you will need to start lifting the clutch, bringing it to the disengagement point, or the point where the vehicle should start to move, which however will not happen because, rightly, we are holding the brakes. But how do we understand that with the clutch we have reached the disengagement point? Very simple, you will feel that the engine will start to vibrate, and it will be its way of telling us that it is ready to let us go. But be careful not to lift the clutch too much with the brake applied, because otherwise we will end up stalling the engine. At this point, with the clutch stopped at the disengagement point, just release the brake and accelerate a little, without even being in too much of a hurry. If you have locked the clutch at the right point, you will see that already by removing your foot from the brake the car will start to move forward; we will help it to start better by pressing the accelerator slightly, since we are on a hill and the car will have a little more difficulty starting. There is one thing you need to be very careful about: not to lift the clutch further when you release the brake and start accelerating. The clutch has already been brought to its release point, and it will have to be held there, for the usual ten meters, or until we have reached a speed suitable for letting it release completely without any side effects. So, to summarize: while you are stationary, clutch down and right foot on the brake, lift the clutch up to the release point, or until the engine starts to vibrate, then release the brake and start accelerating a little, always keeping the clutch halfway; once you have gained speed, push the clutch up completely #STARTINGUP #CLUTCH #EASYDRIVING
