When driving a manual transmission car uphill, it is recommended to use 3rd gear. The method for driving a manual transmission car uphill is as follows: 1. With the gear in 1st, press the brake pedal to prevent rolling back; 2. Press the clutch pedal all the way down and start the engine; 3. Slowly release the clutch pedal; 4. When the car starts to shake, keep the left foot steady on the clutch pedal and release the handbrake at the same time; 5. Move the right foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal, gently press the accelerator and move forward slowly; 6. When the car starts to move forward, gradually increase the accelerator with the right foot while gradually releasing the clutch pedal with the left foot; 7. When the car reaches sufficient speed, shift up gradually. Manual transmission uses a manual shift mechanical gearbox to adjust the speed. By manually moving the gear lever, the gear engagement position inside the gearbox is changed to alter the gear ratio, thereby achieving the purpose of shifting gears.
