How to Shift Gears Without Pressing the Clutch in a Car?

[Vickie]

The following are methods for shifting gears without pressing the clutch: 1. Before shifting, try to increase the engine speed to build up the car's momentum, then quickly release the accelerator pedal while shifting the gear to neutral. Quickly move the gear lever to the higher gear, applying a slight force to push the lever. Wait for the engine speed to drop. When the engine speed matches the transmission speed, the gear lever will smoothly engage into the higher gear as if being pulled in. 2. When upshifting: Release the accelerator—shift to neutral—pause and wait for the engine speed to drop—engage the higher gear. 3. When downshifting: Release the accelerator—shift to neutral—press the accelerator to increase engine speed—engage the lower gear.
