I laughed so freaking hard the first time I tried when I managed to induce this wild bucking motion I didn't even know was possible. 🤣
He’s the kind of dad who leaves for milk but is back in 15 minutes
sounds great
Bruh 😆
Is that not normal lol
he would be back faster than 15 min cuz he know how to drive without staling lol
Actually went to get some milk lool
This is the first guide I've seen that's actually explained what's going on in the engine. That's literally all I've ever needed. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching!
@@CarsDotComthank you very much for the tips on how to drive the Manuel cars.God bless.
every young person on the internet with a manual loves and remembers this guy, because this video is amazing.
well trust me, I don't hahahha
"Dont judge me im trying to help you... and its free." i love this man
😂Right he didn’t have to
Lol
Lmfao
I held a straight face until he chuckled 😂

Guide was too detailed, I accidently ended up becoming a certified racetracker after watching it.
Damn i got too far too, i am now in space with my rocket car
@@demetrius8184 Nice, I was practicing shifting and I accidentally went to RLS racing light speed and i ended up in mars. Elon says hello
I was embarrassed by real racers because I didn’t know what double clutching is.
Im flying now i dont need a car
Made my night😂
It's so easy to drive a manual. Before I got my license I was so scared of driving and now after couple of months of daily driving I feel confident in any car. So don't give up people
I need to learn how to drive one because all the beautiful cars have them
Driving horses? Lol
thanks brother
Really depends on the vehicle. Honda for instance has a very forgiving clutch, meanwhile a subaru will make you work your butt off.
This may or may not be helpful to anyone but I realized (for myself) it’s important to not overthink everything. When I first started practicing driving a manual I was super focused on getting the car moving and releasing the clutch perfectly. Despite this, the car would always jerk. One time, though, I was distracted in a conversation with someone, and subconsciously got the car moving, as smooth as ever. I didn’t even realize what I did until a couple seconds after
Right!! I noticed when I had to look at my surrondering and steer more I forgot about the pedals and started great and much more intuitively.
@@baseballer21and0 I was being taught to drive a manual car and I was told that you beed to practice finding the bite point or friction zone but I actually learned that instead of revving to 1k and like most people tell you to rev up to 2k or 2.5k because its easier to release the clutch and it makes for a much smother take off like and automatic car would and its easier to do instead of thinking about feathering the gas.
Nice
Nice
same, i used to think the brakes didn’t work in a manual😂

As a European dude I can say 90% of us drive manuals here, in almost every country in the continent. I live in a small EU country called malta which has the steering wheel on the right side like the UK. I'm trying to Imagine driving automatic on the left side your entire life and then trying to drive stick while driving in what we consider the passenger seat haha. I found it confusing when I drove on the left side in iceland, kept touching my arm on the door to switch gears for the first 30 mins. we learn on manuals as the norm, and fun fact if you learn on an automatic car your license won't be valid to drive manuals. I'm smiling and finding the comments wholesome with americans coming here to calm down from the panic and learn the basics :) You got this guys
true. Its mostly in the US. In latin america most learn manuals
Thank you :,) I bought a manual car and it’s something I want to learn how to drive. It is terrifying because a lot of people here in the US have never driven manual so they get annoyed real quick when I try practicing how to drive.
Manual car driver here - great explanation. I'd add that usually we don't watch revs on the tachometer (which in this case is a combined display for revs/speed), but listen to the engine to decide when to shift gear. Also, when parking on a hill, the smart drivers move the shifter in first gear with the nose of the car pointing up, and in rear with the nose pointing down to make maximum use of the resistance of the drive train.
Yes, but that's for experienced manual car driver. Beginners need to start somewhere and have a reference to get to know the car.
In my case, I can feel the engine and just time it in my head. The tip about reverse, it varies from one brand to another, just ask your dealer. They will know. However with Volkswagen and Audi, you usually push DOWN on the shifter so the lockout bump slides under the boot and into R. Been driving MINIs and VWs for 14 years with manuals and will never give them up.
I don't like his slow-clutch-out on starting. That's riding the clutch.
My first car didn't have a tachometer and that actually helped a lot because now I don't even have to look to understand the rpm of the car
Yeah, this is true.
This man put heels on "for demonstration". I'm done 😂🤣😂
that's dedication or he was trying to justify his fetish
@Mr. A-Z Mans said "wiggle that stick" like 5 times. But who knows, could just be for demonstration.
quit hating on him...he has every right to feel fabulous
@@alikos88 tell them delroy
Shit took me out 🤣🤦🏽♂️ he’s Mooky
This guy explained how to drive manual better then anybody could
Straightforward. Clear. 👍
So true
But he still got the whole idea of how an engine runs wrong.
@12345soccerguy he got that so wrong about the caosting in nuetral thing.
@12345soccerguy You are putting more strain on your brakes (not big but...) by coasting in Neutral. Use the benefit of engine braking and get into Neutral only when you are about to stop completely.
this actually clarified so much. when i crashed my auto car my friend sold me an old manual nissan pulsar for $500 because i desperately needed a car, although i had zero experience and very little know how of how to drive manual. He drove me around the block once at 11:00pm to show me how it’s done and then he sent me on my way. I drove that car in morning rush hour traffic every day from then on just vibing it out in a sink or swim situation hahaha. I drove that car for 2 years no real worries but until now almost 5years later can i understand what I was doing right and what I never truly understood. 😂
I’ve rewatched this video so many times just trying to learn how to drive a manual car. I finally got one yesterday and I love it so much. Thanks to this video and the help of my dad I can drive manual (I still need a little practice) and love it so much.
how has it been i just got a man 370z like 3 days ago lol
@@michaelPerez-fi5uh woahhh no way I got a 2004 350z. I love it so much it’s really fun and I just did my first oil change two days ago. I’m planning on modifying it.
@@mrios6969 ayyy, glad to hear have you gotten used to it like driven it in public road already?
@@michaelPerez-fi5uh yeah! When I first got my car I had my dad drive it back and from there I spent three three days just trying to get a hang of it in my neighborhood and by the fourth day I was on public roads. I did have previous practice a year or two ago with my neighbors car so I did have an idea of how it would feel but I’d suggest practicing around your neighborhood first.
@@mrios6969 oh def yeah just been practicing around my neighborhood, but just nervous for when I get on public road since I basically live in bumper traffic
lmfaoo I had to imagine someone waking up in the night and seeing a robber siting in their car watching this video trying to find out how to use the stick
He's gonna steal a lot of kilometers worth of distance off the clutch for sure
Stick shifts are modern day theft protection
Now that is hella funny.
@@under_dog2140 Only in America though, any other country, and you're pretty much fucked.
@@omni-man4624 yup America becoming lazy
This guide was so good that my automatic turned into a manual.

@@pizzamozzerrella8567 well, you probably passed then😂
Wow. As a learner most of my doubts are answered well and I feel completely positive. Thank you.100% helpful for beginners with manual
How you doing now,,,?
I learned on a 99 mustang gt with the heaviest clutch I’ve ever tried to this day took me a few hours to learn then immediately took it three states away and realized I didn’t practice downshifting
“Get to know the shifter"
Me: “Hi shifter, my name is Dylan“
Shifter: ......

@@FocusedHands Not sure what that means..LMAO
You made me laugh
@@FocusedHands Uhmm okay. Glad you find my comment funny. But i'm still confused xD
Its almost like saying that is lit... to explain something is cool
damn this man family now
I'm dead💀💀😭😂
Made the transition (no pun intended) to a manual transmission about 5 years ago. This video was tremendous in helping me learn. Just came back to rewatch and potentially relearn some tips and tricks, 5 years in. Wanted to say thanks to y'all for an excellent tutorial! And it's ✨free✨ 😂
I watched this video three times last night and picked up my first manual this morning, seriously like riding a bike with how detailed this video was. great work
Thanks for sharing, very inspiring!
One of my friends wont drive anything but a manual because one time he was out trying to buy some weed and these dudes held him at gunpoint and tried to steal his mustang. They stalled it like 3 or 4 times trying to take off and then just gave up and ran away.
Kaleb Hay only reason I want a manual lmao
Come to south Africa they could have left with it most of the population here drives stick

@Mads Sune Hanelius I guess you've never seen a movie huh?
“Don’t judge me, I’m trying to help you.” 😂
Literally my favorite part😂😂
And it's free!
He was quick with it too
I didn't and now I think next time I have to try to drive stick I have a chance of getting the hang of it without causing costly damage. the ones that had an issue with the heels either know how to drive (why you watching this unless to get a some extra secrets) or have a problem with their own masculinity.
I honestly found this video super helpful and easy to understand... Even though I've driven a manual car before, I never learned how to... But this is going to help me a lot on my learning experience... Thank you so much
The downshifting while braking was what worried me the most, thank you so much for addressing that. Really good, informative video. I definitely learned a lot and enjoyed learning.
mine doesnt have reverse it only has racemode, cant wait to try it
Be sure to use it when you’re driving fast on a highway,you’ll definitely feel the fast boost with the Racing Gear 😁👍🏻
Rocket mode.
Perfect for driving in the autobahn
ksi baby
perfect for driving in school zones
I've been driving my manual for over a year now and I just wanted to come back to this video to say they every time I put it in N I hear his voice in my head "WIGGLE THAT STICK" I don't think this will ever go away 10/10
Yes, it's the best way to check if you are in any gear or just in neutral
Dealership i bought the car from drove me around and told me that exact same thing, took me around two years before becoming proficient.
Very important.
😭😭😭
Picking up my first manual car at 27 in a few days. Have an 80 mile drive home! I'll be staying off the highway but this video alleviated all of my concern. Wish me luck
why off the highway
@@jaskajokunen3716 I made it home. Was fine but it took me about an hour to get the hang of it
How are you doing with your manual driving now? Are you used to it?
@@rollmops3113 I love it, I can never own another automatic car now
@@KwBeee that's great to hear! It's my third day of driving manual and I'm getting the hang of it, certainly not as hard as I was expecting! All the best!🙂
This is the perfect guide! It covers everything you need to know while daily driving a manual. It might just be the first guide that covers parking too! As a younger person who really wants a stick shift for a daily but has no access to learn on one, this video helped me understand everything a lot better and prepared me better for the road

I watched this maybe three years ago with an automatic license but no manual experience as I had inherited a manual car.
I had literally never been in the drivers seat before but this video genuinely was all I ever needed. I’ve now religiously drove manual ever since without any additional help or teaching this guide is actually sensational and now as I’m about to teach a friend how to drive manual his first step is to watch this start to finish.
It has been five years since this video was uploaded, but it is still here, and it benefits people. Thank you
I love how he demonstrates every mistake.
exactly
That's what makes guides better, demonstrate the mistakes so that you know what happens if said mistake were to happen, and you can respond accordingly.

I've driven manual trucks my entire 16 driving years but this came up in my recommendations. I'm watching it anyways because it's so well put together and this guy is hilarious. I died when he showed he had a heel on 🤣

I signed up for driving classes and its gonna start from tomorrow, I wanted to be ready and focus more learning driving for next 20 days of the course for practice till driving test, without wasting more time with basics and your video helped a lot.
Last time I drove a manual was appx 18 years ago when I was 16. Took my dads ford probe GT manual for a joyride. He never knew I took it. An exhilarating experience. Now I’m 34 and I’m in the market for a Mustang GT350/R. I think I’m ready.

“Find an empty parking lot”
HOW ARE U GOING TO GET THERE
ok didn't want this to sound disrespectful to the video cuz this might be the most detailed guide on the internet. Just kinda funny to me because no one that I know drives stick.
I was just thinking that 🤣😭😭
Find someone that knows to take you, it's a rite of passage
take someone with you who knows to drive
Usually your dad or parent, anyone who knows how to drive rlly
Disassemble your car, carry the parts to the parking lot and reassemble it there.
hey, how do I drive my car to the empty parking lot in the first place??
😭😭
just use one car from the parking lot
get someone who does know how, or if you really have to, use a trailer. maybe borrow a friend’s, or take driving instructions w/ a standard
Go to a old Toys R Us parking lot
Good question
Great video! It's definitely the most in-depth guide I've seen on UA-cam, a lot of people tend to not mention the mistakes and how to handle hills, one of the most important and difficult skills to master!
As an experienced Manuel driver. I say you are the best teacher for learners.
Guys focus on everything he says
"Thats definitely cooler than killing" after this, this man is alrdy the best manual instructor
HOW DID YOU DO THAT

One of the best driving lessons on UA-cam..
Thanks for watching!
Right !!!
ive never seen anyone explain it any better, as a fast learner from driving my mentors bmw m3 2000 year it was pretty weird learning from him took my 4 days just to stop stalling his engine and watching ur video really explained more about how to prevent harming the clutch and gears thanks for your video really awsome, im thinking of getting a subaru brz myself or maybe a mazda mx 5 i still cant decide really
ashish jacob hands down in every aspect
“You are going to SUCK at it. It makes me laugh just thinking about it.”
I’ve seen a bunch of videos and honestly this is the only one that I found easy to understand and very detailed and informational, I’m definitely saving this video for whenever I get my car
Recently bought a 22 GR86 manual. I’ve driven my dads civic once and my friends fiesta once. Did ok. I had to drive it from the dealership home which is about an hour away. The only part I struggle with is to get going. I either stall in my car or take off a little too fast. But this is helping me so much already learning to not let off the clutch so fast and control my gas better
How are you doing with the manual now? How long did it take for it to become second nature? I'm getting my first manual car tomorrow, and though I've (badly) driven manuals a couple of times before, I am really nervous and worried that I'm going to wreck the clutch and/or gearbox!
@@rollmops3113oh dude, it took me less than a week to be able to comfortably drive around town without stalling. It’s actually really easy. It’s way more intimidating than it is. Some helpful tricks I found is to one, turn off the AC and any HVAC components. I thought it helped me out, not sure if it actually did, but technically it should because of less load on the engine. two, find the bite point of the clutch and don’t look at the RPMs, trust me. I know you want to look at them but it’s so much easier to kinda stare off and just focus purely on your leg movements of slowly letting out the clutch and giving it a little gas. You’ll feel when the car wants to go and you can hear it too. Listen to the car, sounds weird but you’ll understand when you’re doing it so turn the radio off as well. Third is try and find a parking lot that’s not flat. I had found one that went a little up hill and a little bit downhill. Going downhill aids in taking off and learning on an uphill well allow you to learn that you need more gas/ to not let off the clutch as quickly. And just focus on learning how to take off. that’s the hardest part about these cars. It’ll take a little time but you got this. Just practice for about an hour or so a day. And don’t be scared to stall. Stalling isn’t really bad. Riding the clutch excessively and using it to control speed it bad though. The clutch is more a on and off thing. Except reverse. You can use the clutch to control the speed because it’s usually for such a short distance. Other than that, this video is great advice as well, it’s what taught me so you’ll be able to get it
you had me at "you're going to suck at it."
Had to subscribe when I saw this man wearing boots and heels
You actually wear a high heel for the sake of this tutorial respect
I just got my first car, which is a manual. Through all of the videos I've found to help teach me how to learn, this was the best. Can't wait to come back to this in a year when I'm a pro.
update?
Good thing you bought a manual as your first car.
Did you die?

Umm... steep uphill on the way to car park and inside the car park.
Uncle Tony: “Ight, Imma head out.”
Was hoping for you to touch on engine stalling. I feel like that should be tackled along with the clutch since that's arguably the hardest part to stop doing in Manuals.
It's very easy: don't release the clutch too fast. Slowly release it until you start rolling, then add some gas and fully release the clutch.
Remembered watching this months ago when I was first learning to drive and now I have my own license. Time flies and I can't help but thank this video for helping out a bit in my driving
"its easy becouse im profesional" 20:51
this guy is savage xd
My kids are driving stick shift cars cause I don’t want them texting and driving
unfortunately, they can do it no matter what transmission they're using
If you can’t use your phone while driving a manual then you aren’t very good at multitasking 😂 you aren’t always changing gear, just sit in gear for a while and then grab your phone
multitasking shouldn't be taken into considerance under these circumstances, every second counts
Lmao
Connor Rocard: what are you trying to say texting while driving is cool or something?😑
As someone who lives in the Alps (where almost everyone only drives manual transmission cars and got manual trannies for driving schools) you did a great job on this vid :) - as an advanced vid based on this one would be fuel economy and optimal rpm ranges for given situations :D
I really like they way this guy explains it. Although I've been driving manual cars before myself but i still needed to hear this.
This is how we save the manual folks. Driving a manual is not so bad and elevates the driving experience.

Too confusing.
Sorry!
Obviously, chess is not your pass time
It’s more fun driving a manual. I suck at it (still practicing) but it’s still funny when I fail miserably 😭.

I bought my Toyota 86 in manual, and my drive home from the dealership was the second time I had ever been in a manual car. Over a few months, with videos like this, it became second nature to me. I never took any lessons - you can do this too.

So i guess ill get a 19 challenger rt in a manual.
Just did the same thing last week!
Wait, what? Are you in America? In England you have two types of licenses - manual & automatic, or automatic only. If you pass in an automatic, you're not allowed to drive a manual until you retake and pass your test in a manual.
@@dandandan01 In North America ( Canada AND USA) there's only one type of licence. You get to buy and drive whatever type of car transmission you want to, no matter with which one you learned how to drive in the first place.
I learned manual 10% driving instructor, 20% myself, 30% dad, 40% internet.
I learned manual by guessing. And I guessed right.... after the first 3 guesses... but it was a 1966 mustang I had just built. And used the old clutch. I ended up getting a new one soon after since it was worn out anyway.
And 100% reason to remember the name.
Bullshit, the driving instructor teaches you 90% of everything.

I had a shitbox honda. I drove the wheels off that damn thing. The cheapest car I had honestly was the most fun I had with a car.
American heroes, is what we call them.
Old Honda's are rev happy engines
If this isn't the most fucking informative and easily digestible video on the topic, I don't know what it is. I've been trying to teach my girlfriend for a while now and even in person I might as well be speaking Latin. She watched this video about twice and now she understands everything just fine. Bravo my dude.
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching.
Very detailed and most importantly very-well delivered, with all that side jokes and humouric tone, which really a big bonus! Subscribed!
Thanks for this! This is one of the items on my bucket list.. learning and being able to drive stick.. ex husband tried to teach me like 30 years ago, but in a cemetery, I couldn't really get past 1st gear lol..
When I saw that woman’s heel shoe. I almost lost it..... good video I learned something.
KING SYE I almost screamed lol it was then I knew this was the video for me
He’s missing 1 major point, Manual shifting is just way cooler than auto....
Way cooler is as understatement
true, but the speed of a dual clutch auto during launch control cant be beat
true :)

I love this video. I love driving my 2020 Honda Civic Sport. And yes I do have a CVT, but I've always wanted to learn stick. I think this video has educated me a lot on manuels. And even helped learn how to kinda practice on a CVT with paddle shifters. I know there not exactly the same but you gotta start somewhere.
I'm still learning, mostly teaching myself. When I got hired on for the company I work for, they taught us juuuuust enough to load manuals onto and off the haulers. Though now that we've basically done away with our towing service and business has gotten to the point which we don't have enough haulers to meet demands of our activities, they have us driving cars to the customers and/or driving the swap/trades back or getting a ride back from a coworker. Same thing if someone's selling their car to us, we'll have a coworker drive us to them then drive the sold car back.
A lot of times, when one of us gets assigned a vehicle that's a manual, we have to play around with schedules to make sure someone who knows how to drive stick gets the activity. So anytime there's downtime at the shop, I try to find a manual and practice around with it.
This video is extremely helpful and I appreciate it so much.
