What Causes the Car to Shake When Releasing the Clutch in First Gear?
1 Answers
Shaking when releasing the clutch in first gear is an issue with the coordination between the throttle and clutch. Below is an introduction to the clutch travel and precautions: Introduction to Clutch Travel: Free travel refers to the distance the clutch pedal moves from the highest point to the lowest point, commonly known as the 'distance when pressing the pedal down.' Effective travel is the distance during which the clutch is in a disengaged state, meaning the engine power cannot be transmitted to the wheels. Experienced drivers can feel this distance. Engagement travel refers to the distance from when the clutch starts to engage and transmit engine power to the drive wheels until the clutch is fully released. Precautions for Clutch Use: You can release the clutch as soon as the vehicle starts moving; there's no need to keep pressing it. With gradual adaptation and more practice, you'll get used to it. The throttle should be applied gently, and the clutch should not be released at this moment. Only when the throttle is well controlled should you release the clutch.
