What are the effects of driving at high gear and low speed on a car?
1 Answers
Driving at high gear and low speed can negatively impact the car's engine and clutch, and it should be avoided as much as possible. Here are the disadvantages of driving at high gear and low speed: Starting and acceleration issues: Driving at high gear and low speed can easily lead to carbon buildup in the engine, making the car harder to start, causing weak acceleration, and increasing fuel consumption. Clutch damage: The clutch gears endure excessive impact, preventing the normal transmission of engine power, making the clutch more prone to damage. Clutch wear: Prolonged driving at high gear and low speed accelerates clutch wear and may also cause difficulty in shifting gears.
