Is it possible to start the car in neutral without pressing the clutch?
1 Answers
Starting the car in neutral without pressing the clutch is possible. Methods for starting the car: First, release the throttle and gently shift into neutral, but avoid using excessive force. Generally, two fingers can lightly shift into neutral. All forward gears in a manual transmission are equipped with synchronizers. When shifting gears, pressing the clutch allows the rotating driving gear to engage with a driven gear of a larger or smaller gear ratio, achieving acceleration or deceleration effects at the same rotation speed. Precautions when using neutral: Always press the clutch when shifting into neutral. Some drivers tend to shift into neutral from any gear without pressing the clutch, which is incorrect. Prolonged operation in this manner can damage the connecting parts between the gearbox and the gear lever. Therefore, always remember to press the clutch when shifting. Additionally, avoid coasting in neutral on downhill slopes.
