How to Shift from First Gear to Second Gear in a Manual Transmission?

[LeEthan]

Manual transmission shifting method from first gear to second gear: 1. Before shifting from first gear to second gear, you can release the throttle to allow the engine speed to decrease, which will prevent severe jerking after shifting; 2. When shifting from first gear to second gear, quickly press the clutch pedal, otherwise the shift will not be smooth. After completing the shift, when releasing the clutch pedal, you can use the semi-engagement technique used during starting to reduce the speed difference between the engine flywheel and the clutch plate. If downshifting, you can use the downshift throttle blip technique to also avoid significant jerking after completing the shift.
