I had a learner on a driving lesson stall Infront of me repeatedly at lights on an incline, I left them plenty of roll back space and honestly I didn't care one bit that they held me up and we missed the green light, not everyone behind you is an arsehole most decent people will wait and understand so don't panic about what the person behind you is thinking 💕 love to all the learners!
Very important to prime the system before your drive too, this is often overlooked... Handbrake on, mash the accelerator, and feather the clutch at 50% for about 30 seconds. Get it nice and hot.
There's 3 of us learners right next to one another on a 3 lane one way road then suddenly the traffic light bastard went red so ho and behold all 3 of us stalled the car, literally felt like a drag race tryna get the car up and running while all of us have the same look on our faces.
Omg literally same I sat through 2 green lights until I finally stopped stalling and got going 😂 Stalled 4 times it was horrific I nearly got out of the car
my instructor taught me in a diesel, always made me set off with clutch alone, I knew that petrol cars required more finesse. he obviously wanted to save time not teaching me coordination. I got my own car 3 months deep into lessons and it was a 1.6 petrol focus and it really helped me get some skill and control. it made lessons easier and when my test came around I was able to apply the techniques I learned in my own car and with my instructor. I'm glad I passed like a week before my test I messed up at a ridiculously steep hill junction and my instructor came in and took the clutch off me but he didn't give enough bite, and I ended up burning the clutch to get out of the junction. he made out as if it was me who should get the clutch up higher, which was impossible as I took my foot completely off the pedal as I felt him take it. he had no confidence in me doing my test early, soon proved him wrong getting a first-time pass with 0 minors, suck it mark.
@@abbieking5017 your doing right having some private practice. as for your instructor telling you to stop doing it, that is what we call none of their business and they don't have exclusive right to teach you, its you giving them money to learn anything beyond the lesson is all you. it seems driving instructors avoid teaching people in petrol cars as it requires more finesse all the time where as in a diesel the pupil can mess up largely and most times pull it off., where as petrol cars will most of the time result in a stall which can put people off. anyway i wish you the best with your lessons!
stephen carroll If that’s the case, you might need to adjust your seat so you use more of your foot to release the clutch rather than all of your leg. Gives you more control too :)
I once saw a learner stall 5 times in a row. She stalled when parallel parking on an incline but the examiner was okay with it. She went "sorry sorry sorry" and started the car in second gear when she slowed down and hadn't downshifted or put it in neutral. Naturally enough the car stalled, again, and again, and again. He said "We're done." and she broke down in tears. That was brutal to watch, wanted to yell to put it in neutral but I thought it was best not to.
@@Kalash74 shitty??? each stall is a minor mark, saying it was her first time stalling, she only had 3 stalls left. I think giving her even more than 2 chances is nice, 3 is borderline
Thanks for the tip about not having to stop the car after stalling while moving. I am inexperienced, a learner driver, and I had this happen to me the other day. I had a cyclist in front, and wanted to overtake, but realised a roundabout was coming up, so changed my mind. I'm in 4th gear, and broke to keep a safe distance from the cyclist, but forgot to change down. So I stalled the car (in 4th), but stayed in control of the car and immediately put it into 1st, restarted the car and continued on into the roundabout (the traffic behind wouldn't have even known I'd stalled). I was impressed with my control and calmness in the situation, but then started doubting whether I had done the right thing, and what a driving examiner would have thought of what I did. This video has made me realise I probably did it right. And great videos, great channel, thank you!
Almost 2 months later after purchasing my first manual car and I'm really getting the hang of it. I still struggle with over-revving the engine when I move after a red light. I know it's my foot sitting on the clutch longer than I'd like but I'm really getting some balance. Finally took it to work which is a 30 mile drive one way and experience stop and go traffic constantly. This is awesome, you guys got this!
driving a whole new car after learning in your instructions car is a pain. i got my car drove it for a week without stalking and randomly i just started stalling. just today i’ve driven without stalling after 3 days of stalling at traffic lights i have no idea why but i hope i’m getting better
Been driving for like 6 months and when I bought my first car I struggled moving off. I was taught to only use the clutch to move off and not using the gas until my foot is off the clutch. Setting the revs and using the clutch really helped me drive efficiently.
Just got a petrol car today and the drive home was horrendous. My instructor taught me the same thing as u, moving off with the clutch on its own. Any advice to how to adjust to setting revs and using clutch with a petrol???
@@kurtracine3288 for me personally after 2 weeks of adjusting I can say you likely will. It’ll be a bit bumpy at the beginning but like I am Now you’ll be comfortably driving a petrol
@@kurtracine3288 I’m exactly the same it actually puts me off driving. Don’t understand why instructors teach in diesel if new drivers are most likely going to buy a 1L or 1.2 petrol
Thanks @Mj Karim My 5th day driving today and I'm driving better I only stalled once today going to work but going home I never stalled and I was in traffic for like 30 mins. 👌🏼😅 Getting Better
Thank you so much! I recently bought my first car after passing my test last year. Drove it for the first time yesterday and stalled like 563479 times lol. It was really frustrating but now that I've seen this, I realised I just need to give it a bit of gas and practice my clutch control. Great timing Pin 👍
@@zayslost bro our family ended up switching to an auto car since the manual one was old😂 I have been driving for 3 years now... And I remember driving manual for 6 months.. the best tip I could give is that maintain rpm between 1500 to 2000 and just slowly release clutch... At the biting point the car will start to move and revs will drop(this part is imp)but you have to compensate for that rev drop by giving more gas and similarly slowly releasing clutch...
Small tips: 1. When you change gear to first, and you holding leg on clutch, car will change sound from lower pitch to higher and when you feel you are going forward, just freeze leg. I suppose thats left leg or you are alien with more legs. And when you start to move, gently pull out leg from pedal and hold a little bit acceleration. Thats to prevent stalling. 2. But if you are at some hill, you gotta change gear to first first, and then hold gass around 1500 RPM and freeze, and gently go from clutch pedal.
I passed my driving test back in Sep 2019 where I drove an A class 180D which was my instructors car and i never use to stall and when I did i couldn't even tell if I stalled or not as there was no jumping effect all that happened was the engine turned off and all i had to do was put my clutch in and the engine started no turning the key business. but anyhow 2 weeks ago I brought my first car from dealer a 1 liter petrol VW POLO and honestly all I do is stall especially at traffic light. Honestly Pin this video is really helped me alot and all your other videos. Keep up the good work. Honestly you are helping people out alot especially those who have passed their driving test.
I’m the same! My driving instructors car I never stalled even being a petrol because it could take some lift of the clutch before gas was needed. Now I’ve got a VW Golf which is the same as what I learnt in but just an older model and now it takes almost no clutch movement before it needs gas or I’ve stalled. Had the car 3 weeks and still stalling at lights and now I’m scared to use roundabouts in case i stall at them and end up in the roundabout. Hills are my worst nightmare though
Fay I’m so glad you wrote this comment! Iv been passed 2 weeks now I never once stalled in my instructors car yet lately now I’m passed it’s all I do is stall! My trouble is cues of traffic my clutch control was always great in my instructors corsa now I have my own car a Suzuki swift I literally stall every time I’m stuck in traffic it’s embarrassing and a nightmare I’m a great driver but when it come to going down to first gear been stuck in lights etc and the lights turn green I always stall I have really struggled lately which has knocked my confidence as a new driver…
All my driving instructors have said the car moves forward only clutch-release, no throttle required, and the car in which i practiced before a driving test(with an instructor) used to move forward with only clutch release. But the car which we own requires a gas to move forward, and clutch release simply stalls the car. Only you were the one to acknowledge this fact, thank you. Great tutorial.
I was taught to put the car in neutral, and pull the handbrake after a stall, but the 2 times I stalled in my own car, I just put the clutch and brake down before turning the engine off and on again. As long as I don't roll back, there isn't a reason to panic because it won't help.
I passed back in november last year, didn't pay for any lessons just watched Pin's videos and put the advice into practice with my dad supervising me, passed 1st attempt with 2 minors :)
Cherry Berry not sure exactly how many it was more a case of as and when my dad was available and willing to take me out, everyone will learn at there own pace. Just focus on what your struggling with. I used to go out for about an hour or two each time have a casual drive on roads that aren’t too busy find a nice flat car park with plenty of free spaces for practicing parking when your getting the hang of it then you can start to challenge yourself. The main thing I can tell you is don’t rush it too much it will all come together eventually just stay confident and don’t get disheartened if things aren’t progressing as fast as you would like them to. Built up areas and busier roads will be a little stressful at first but you soon get used to them. (All the best and good luck!)
@@Keeler442 I think one of my biggest challenges is that I don't have anyone to practice with outside doing professional lessons. It's so important to be able to do that because I have a friend who did just like you and only had 4 lessons with an instructor before he passed.
I would say Pin Binning, everything you say about clutch control that some instructors or even family members teach learners in the wrong method could be the reason to some of the top 10 reasons that lead to learners failing tests.
thanks for this pin. i started stalling later into my lessons because there were points that were just too overwhelming for little old me lol. stalling just added to the pressure, but i also found that focusing on recovering helped to clear my head up because i was thinking about just one thing. i once stopped and started in third gear diesel without stalling - god bless...something took pity on me that day. i feel a lot more comfortable recovering from stalling thanks to your video. youre the best pin.
Got my test coming up: I know I can do it its just the nerves. Your videos are always helpful so will always recommend a friend to look at your channel. :)
Hi Pin, I passed my Dutch drivingtest earlier this week and I drive my husband's car. It is so different than my learner vehicle because of the clutch. I stall at every stop. This video helped me so much and I'm getting better at it. So a big thanks to you and love from the Netherlands!
This helped me a lot, I stalled so many times today my check engine light came on with only 60 miles on the dash (Nissan issues). After walking back inside ashamed, I watched 5 minutes of this video and ended up driving 20 minutes straight with total confidence. It was simply a combination of me letting the clutch off too fast and not giving enough gas. Once I let off the clutch slowly, I realized where the bite point was and where to give it gas. Thank you kind sir, my clutch thanks you as well.
Thank you so much for the “first gas, then clutch” tip!! I’ve been driving for a year now and I still have liiiitle problems with moving off. I took lessons on a diesel car and the family car is on petrol and it was kinda hard to me to make the switch. I stalled the car a couple of times and I’m still having little issues when it’s traffic (I kinda get nervous a little bit, I don’t wanna bother the other drivers if I’m moving off to slowly), especially because I did exactly what you mentioned in the video, first clutch, then gas. I’ll definitely try the “first gas then clutch” method, I hope it will save me and make me less nervous 😁😁❤️
This does work at the beginning stages of learning manual but some ppl do this too much and wear their clutch out earlier, once u get used to a manual don’t have to overthink it just balance the gas n clutch
@@theamateur6731 Hi! Sorry for the late reply. Yes, it definitely did!! It takes some practice but it's worth it! I haven't stalled the car ever since.
I have my driving license since 2 years now, and when i was getting ready to start learning i was terrified and always thought that it is very hard to drive a manual car. It took my 3 days to learn everything Perfectly. Just find a save place to practice and PRACTICE after you have practiced for 1 hour your pretty much ready to roll.
This has helped a lot because my 4th lesson I kept stalling at roundabouts and it kept stressing me out but this is a helpful video you need more recognition
Exact same boat here lol, purchasing a sports car and having to learn manual after 7 years of automatic driving …. Got on the road after 30 minutes of practice and only stalled twice… need more practice before buying 😂
I’ve only driven manual about 3-4 times in the past, and I’ve recently picked up a project car that has a manual transmission, getting more comfortable with it and boy is it fun to drive
I watched many videos but this video actually helped me not stall at the light or stop sign. I was stalling so much I wanted to give the car back to Carvana! I was so frustrated because I had everything else down ( gear shifting & down shifting) I practiced clutch control after watching video and I have NOT stalled at a light or stop sign since!! Now a shopping center parking lot was a different story but I need to remember to be in first gear so I won’t stall the car. I have owned my manual transmission for 27 days now. 44 years old and never drove a manual in my life until now. I wanted to learn and purchasing a manual would force me to learn. It’s definitely all about muscle memory. Thank You again for this video
"gas pedal WHILE you bring the clutch up, not AFTER" THANKS!!!! This has been the thing I couldn't wrap my head around for so long. I've been made so terrified of "ruining the clutch" that I kept making this mistake. I've had so much control after this little tip. THANK YOU
Not just ruining the clutch but beginners tend to give more acceleration and car can crash if you don't brake soon enough that's why driving instructors don't teach that at first
Thanks for online courses. Them helped me a lot ! I watched a lot of videos on your channel and i bought only 10 hours for practicing. 2 hours for passing practical. Yesterday i've passed the exam with just a liitle investment for my driving licence. Provisional+bookings+practice=430£. All of that thanks to you. You do a great job mate!!
This is really helpful. As an American we don't get drivers ed help for manual transmissions. I would have loved better instructions with training. Instead I just get told "Easy on the gas, gentle on the clutch" and I'm expected to master stick in a week.
Bro you are the best, I am recommending your channel to all those who are to do lessons coz wooowww. I've been stalling my car every time I am by the traffic lights.
Great video. Driven auto all my life and prepping to switch to manual next year for a performance car. I have been tossing around the “gas first, then ease off clutch” theory in my head for forever since I can’t practice. No one ever teaches it that way but in my opinion a bulletproof way to learn manual, since finding the clutch bite point is not the easiest thing to do for beginners. Glad an instructor validated my thoughts today. Cheers!
Just practiced earlier with my dad and hearing you stall your car for the examples and the rattling and jumping of the interior giving me flashbacks of getting yelled at😂😂
I'm getting my first standard car tomorrow I watched this video 7times already you explain everything soo good I can't wait to use what I learned from you
Even though i've been daily driving a manual sports car for 5 years now i still enjoy watching videos on how to drive stick. Idk why i do but i just enjoy them.
I just passed my test week ago and next day I've brought my first car but struggle to drive simply by stalling on junctions and roundabouts and my partner made me realise that I've been thought wrong how to move ( only by a clutch) and watching few videos make me really angry as and now I feel like I need to start learning to drive again and it's knocking my confidence and it's bloody frustrating.
Wow very helpful vid. Once I stalled in a red light and everybody started beeping at me, and the other time I burnt a little bit of tires, but now I wanna practice. Thx ☺️
Thank you so much. i just turned 16, and i've just starded to drive. i've only driven atomatic, but we have a second car thats manual, im thinking about trying it out next week
Thankyou. Just passed my test and brought my 1st car. The car I learnt to drive on was a 1.6 diesel citreon, but the car I brought was a 1.3 petrol mazda 2. Constant stalling or over revving, due to the differences between the cars. Hoping this will help 👍
amazing video. i just learnt how to not stall. havent stalled in my 5 most recent driving learning with my mom. best tip is to take it slow off clutch till it pulls then little gas! amazing channel!
@@anthonygraham6503 exactly. They usually have you holding the bite without the brake to get people to learn the points. I highly doubt *any* instructor will teach heel and toe. A lot of people still think it's a "racing technique"... Then wonder why everything they do is jerky.
www.ultimatedrivingcourse.com/product/the-ultimate-driving-course-first-3-lesson-free/ If you are learning to drive please check out my Ultimate Driving Course. I have provided a link where the first three topics are free to access so you can get feel of what the Ultimate Driving Course is about.
I think the reason instructors teach to use the hand brake when stalling is because on a lot of cars have vacuum brake boosters that quickly lose pressure when the engine is off. That means that if you mess up your timing or fail to turn the engine on in time - you might gragually lose control of brakes and start to roll.
For me, the best way to avoid completely stalling is to just push the clutch all the way through and give half accelerator and give it some revs when the car is in the initial stage of stall but not completely stalled. This technique lets the engine breathe freely again and you don't need to restart it again. Its only been 2 weeks since i learnt it and i know you might think its not the correct way, but trust me, this method has been really helpful especially in the really slow moving traffic in india where i sometimes just lift off the clutch way too early. This helps the engine gain its natural revs back.
3:36 I'd disagree because a lot of modern cars have electronic handbrakes and hill start assist. If you press the accelerator before the clutch is biting on a hill, then the car will immediately release the brakes and cause the car to roll backwards causing a dangerous situation.
I agree. I'm not a fan of the little window switches they call hand brakes these days. That physical brake and lever is what gives you the ability to control the situation for safety reasons. This is why teaching manual should be apart of driving school for all teenagers. If they have to shift, they can't text. If they have to grab their brake lever, they can't grab their phone yanno? But for all other real life situations where it would come up, I would 100% use a manual lever than a little switch.
@@HagaloUstedMismo96 it will if your on a hill with an electronic handbrake. I should know, I have owned and driven 2 manual cars with electronic handbrakes. Not to mention all the hire cars I've lost count of that had the same system. If you gas before clutch it will release the handbrake and roll back before the clutch is engaged. Also I'm a qualified and registered engineer so can tell you that gas before clutch causes excessive clutch wear. Wear on the clutch friction plate is caused primarily by heat, the higher the speed differential between the friction plate and pressure plate the greater amount of thermal energy that must be dissipated when the clutch is engaged. It also puts more force on the damping springs in the friction plate.
I've been watching your videos because I have been wanting to drive since 🤷.My mom finally said I can give driving a go and I even made a video about it because of how excited I was. Thank you very much for all your help.
I'm really thankful to you for this video.! I'm from India and am learning to drive.! On the 1st Day I was having problems of stalling during 1st gear pickup but I watched this video of yours and today I didnt stall at all and driving was really improved.! Thanks a lot for helping me learn to drive safely and smoothly.!
One interesting fact and I never knew this until more than 1 year later i got my license: manual cars with diesel engines are less likely to stall than petrol engines. After getting my driving licence, i very rarely drive and when i do, i use automatic. A year later, my father provide me with a manual car with diesel engine to go to school 5 times a week and i never stall.
Most people just don’t understand the concept of re-clutching after they recognise the engine will stall, they just sit there and wait until it stalls.
The thing that got me with stalling is that every car is different with this. My instructor's car I got the hang of no problem, but when I tried to practice in my parent's car I stalled like 10 times in a row. For their car, you have to really PRESS the gas for it to take, whereas is you did that in my instructor's car it would shoot forward at high speed. It's like every car you get in you have to semi-learn how to drive all over again.
Stalled 4 - 5 times on my test guys, as long as you keep your composure and correct it and drive off again it's fine i passed. Was because of nerves had shakey foot.
Select the right gear: use the palming and thumb up, thumb down method, feel the gear selector springs. Set the gas: gently depress the gas pedal and hold it. Gently lift up clutch: gradually bring it up through the bite and car will move away. Stay calm and practice lots. Best wishes
I stalled 3 times on an uphill heavy traffic. I had a little bit struggle on starting the engine 3rd time because of the battery I think. Experience is your best friend.
Partially engaging the clutch will stop the car from rolling back at a steep road,but it's a bad habit because it will make too much wear on the clutch disc,use handbrake instead
I learnt about only using the clucth this tome instead of using gas/accelerator. Thanks man that helped to learn something new and make live more easier.
the way i avoid stalling is just holding in the clutch, redlining then dropping it really quickly, once i get up to about 10-15 mph then i let off and i have no use for the clutch at that point /s
U are very good teacher! ur vids are helpful,i was using diesel car in my driving lessons ,and i will have to drive petrol car in my real exam,after watching this i feel more confident ,u are actually very good at teaching,thanks.
This was really helpful, my instructor didn't teach me what to do in this situation aside from obviously restarting the car. I didn't know that you could start the car while it is rolling 🤭

Only stalled when i was 14 since then havent once. Not because im a pro but actually we got an automatic.
if you stall, don’t bother restarting your engine get out and apologise to each person as traffic goes by.

Best thing to do is just collect yourself and recover as quick as possible.

Thanks for the tip about not having to stop the car after stalling while moving. I am inexperienced, a learner driver, and I had this happen to me the other day. I had a cyclist in front, and wanted to overtake, but realised a roundabout was coming up, so changed my mind. I'm in 4th gear, and broke to keep a safe distance from the cyclist, but forgot to change down. So I stalled the car (in 4th), but stayed in control of the car and immediately put it into 1st, restarted the car and continued on into the roundabout (the traffic behind wouldn't have even known I'd stalled). I was impressed with my control and calmness in the situation, but then started doubting whether I had done the right thing, and what a driving examiner would have thought of what I did. This video has made me realise I probably did it right. And great videos, great channel, thank you!
You speak so softly, I feel like you never shout and you're probably very encouraging to the learners
Samir YOU'RE BREAKING THE CAR
Almost 2 months later after purchasing my first manual car and I'm really getting the hang of it. I still struggle with over-revving the engine when I move after a red light. I know it's my foot sitting on the clutch longer than I'd like but I'm really getting some balance. Finally took it to work which is a 30 mile drive one way and experience stop and go traffic constantly. This is awesome, you guys got this!
driving a whole new car after learning in your instructions car is a pain. i got my car drove it for a week without stalking and randomly i just started stalling. just today i’ve driven without stalling after 3 days of stalling at traffic lights i have no idea why but i hope i’m getting better
the way he says 'yeh' after every sentence lol
yeh I noticed that too yeh
yeh
wolvo yeh
DGN Driving School 😂😂😂😂😂
DGN Driving School yeh nah yeh mate ya gotta find the biting point yeh bruv
Been driving for like 6 months and when I bought my first car I struggled moving off. I was taught to only use the clutch to move off and not using the gas until my foot is off the clutch. Setting the revs and using the clutch really helped me drive efficiently.
Just got a petrol car today and the drive home was horrendous. My instructor taught me the same thing as u, moving off with the clutch on its own. Any advice to how to adjust to setting revs and using clutch with a petrol???
I'm having the same problem right now I hope I can get it right the next few days
@@kurtracine3288 for me personally after 2 weeks of adjusting I can say you likely will. It’ll be a bit bumpy at the beginning but like I am Now you’ll be comfortably driving a petrol
@@kurtracine3288 I’m exactly the same it actually puts me off driving. Don’t understand why instructors teach in diesel if new drivers are most likely going to buy a 1L or 1.2 petrol
Thanks @Mj Karim My 5th day driving today and I'm driving better I only stalled once today going to work but going home I never stalled and I was in traffic for like 30 mins. 👌🏼😅 Getting Better
when you stall at a junction and then everyone gives way to you and you still stall three more times after😂😂the pressure of them letting you go
exact thing happened to me lol
That was so me today lol😂😂😂
I was at stop sign and the driver opposite of me was letting me go. I stalled twice 😭
Thank you so much! I recently bought my first car after passing my test last year. Drove it for the first time yesterday and stalled like 563479 times lol. It was really frustrating but now that I've seen this, I realised I just need to give it a bit of gas and practice my clutch control. Great timing Pin 👍
Same Im giving it little gas and stalling of either shaking the car since u wrote this comment 11m ago any tips for me now? 😊
how did it go?
@@_rtx_ how did you end up doin?
@@zayslost bro our family ended up switching to an auto car since the manual one was old😂 I have been driving for 3 years now... And I remember driving manual for 6 months.. the best tip I could give is that maintain rpm between 1500 to 2000 and just slowly release clutch... At the biting point the car will start to move and revs will drop(this part is imp)but you have to compensate for that rev drop by giving more gas and similarly slowly releasing clutch...
@@_rtx_ preciate u bro i’m trying so hard to get it right lmao. I just got a subaru wrx and this shit is difficult
Small tips:
1. When you change gear to first, and you holding leg on clutch, car will change sound from lower pitch to higher and when you feel you are going forward, just freeze leg. I suppose thats left leg or you are alien with more legs. And when you start to move, gently pull out leg from pedal and hold a little bit acceleration. Thats to prevent stalling.
2. But if you are at some hill, you gotta change gear to first first, and then hold gass around 1500 RPM and freeze, and gently go from clutch pedal.
I passed my driving test back in Sep 2019 where I drove an A class 180D which was my instructors car and i never use to stall and when I did i couldn't even tell if I stalled or not as there was no jumping effect all that happened was the engine turned off and all i had to do was put my clutch in and the engine started no turning the key business. but anyhow 2 weeks ago I brought my first car from dealer a 1 liter petrol VW POLO and honestly all I do is stall especially at traffic light. Honestly Pin this video is really helped me alot and all your other videos. Keep up the good work. Honestly you are helping people out alot especially those who have passed their driving test.
I’m the same! My driving instructors car I never stalled even being a petrol because it could take some lift of the clutch before gas was needed. Now I’ve got a VW Golf which is the same as what I learnt in but just an older model and now it takes almost no clutch movement before it needs gas or I’ve stalled. Had the car 3 weeks and still stalling at lights and now I’m scared to use roundabouts in case i stall at them and end up in the roundabout. Hills are my worst nightmare though
Fay I’m so glad you wrote this comment!
Iv been passed 2 weeks now I never once stalled in my instructors car yet lately now I’m passed it’s all I do is stall! My trouble is cues of traffic my clutch control was always great in my instructors corsa now I have my own car a Suzuki swift I literally stall every time I’m stuck in traffic it’s embarrassing and a nightmare I’m a great driver but when it come to going down to first gear been stuck in lights etc and the lights turn green I always stall I have really struggled lately which has knocked my confidence as a new driver…
stalling is one of the most heart racing moment that i felt like it'll be the end of me hahaha, thanks for the video, i found this very helpful
All my driving instructors have said the car moves forward only clutch-release, no throttle required, and the car in which i practiced before a driving test(with an instructor) used to move forward with only clutch release.
But the car which we own requires a gas to move forward, and clutch release simply stalls the car. Only you were the one to acknowledge this fact, thank you. Great tutorial.
Are u suspecting me? I did that just today and here the video on how to prevent from it. Man, thank u.
@ici anything wrong?
Very useful, I always feared stalling the car when you really aren't supposed to, and watching this video made my feel a bit more confident about it.
I was taught to put the car in neutral, and pull the handbrake after a stall, but the 2 times I stalled in my own car, I just put the clutch and brake down before turning the engine off and on again. As long as I don't roll back, there isn't a reason to panic because it won't help.
Literally samee dude.
But where I live its a minor if I don't put into neutral before starting again
My dad taught me how to drive in the same way.
Does it cause any wear and tear to start in gear with clutch pressed?
@@AliAhmed-py1qs if your clutch is in proper working order, there's nothing to worry about
I passed back in november last year, didn't pay for any lessons just watched Pin's videos and put the advice into practice with my dad supervising me, passed 1st attempt with 2 minors :)
😲
How many lessons did it take?
Cherry Berry not sure exactly how many it was more a case of as and when my dad was available and willing to take me out, everyone will learn at there own pace. Just focus on what your struggling with. I used to go out for about an hour or two each time have a casual drive on roads that aren’t too busy find a nice flat car park with plenty of free spaces for practicing parking when your getting the hang of it then you can start to challenge yourself. The main thing I can tell you is don’t rush it too much it will all come together eventually just stay confident and don’t get disheartened if things aren’t progressing as fast as you would like them to. Built up areas and busier roads will be a little stressful at first but you soon get used to them. (All the best and good luck!)
Cherry Berry if I had to guess how many hours I practised for I’d say 20+ (time flies when your having fun) 😀
@@Keeler442 I think one of my biggest challenges is that I don't have anyone to practice with outside doing professional lessons. It's so important to be able to do that because I have a friend who did just like you and only had 4 lessons with an instructor before he passed.
I would say Pin Binning, everything you say about clutch control that some instructors or even family members teach learners in the wrong method could be the reason to some of the top 10 reasons that lead to learners failing tests.
thanks for this pin. i started stalling later into my lessons because there were points that were just too overwhelming for little old me lol. stalling just added to the pressure, but i also found that focusing on recovering helped to clear my head up because i was thinking about just one thing. i once stopped and started in third gear diesel without stalling - god bless...something took pity on me that day. i feel a lot more comfortable recovering from stalling thanks to your video. youre the best pin.
Got my test coming up: I know I can do it its just the nerves. Your videos are always helpful so will always recommend a friend to look at your channel. :)
Good luck
Did you pas?
Hi Pin, I passed my Dutch drivingtest earlier this week and I drive my husband's car. It is so different than my learner vehicle because of the clutch. I stall at every stop. This video helped me so much and I'm getting better at it. So a big thanks to you and love from the Netherlands!
Just get auto forget all this rubbish with clutch and gears
This helped me a lot, I stalled so many times today my check engine light came on with only 60 miles on the dash (Nissan issues). After walking back inside ashamed, I watched 5 minutes of this video and ended up driving 20 minutes straight with total confidence. It was simply a combination of me letting the clutch off too fast and not giving enough gas. Once I let off the clutch slowly, I realized where the bite point was and where to give it gas. Thank you kind sir, my clutch thanks you as well.
Thank you so much for the “first gas, then clutch” tip!! I’ve been driving for a year now and I still have liiiitle problems with moving off. I took lessons on a diesel car and the family car is on petrol and it was kinda hard to me to make the switch. I stalled the car a couple of times and I’m still having little issues when it’s traffic (I kinda get nervous a little bit, I don’t wanna bother the other drivers if I’m moving off to slowly), especially because I did exactly what you mentioned in the video, first clutch, then gas. I’ll definitely try the “first gas then clutch” method, I hope it will save me and make me less nervous 😁😁❤️
Hey! Did this method help? I am beginner and so nervous when starting car. Mostly work on luck. 😥
@@theamateur6731 well did it work ik that it works on hill
This does work at the beginning stages of learning manual but some ppl do this too much and wear their clutch out earlier, once u get used to a manual don’t have to overthink it just balance the gas n clutch
@@theamateur6731 Hi! Sorry for the late reply. Yes, it definitely did!! It takes some practice but it's worth it! I haven't stalled the car ever since.
@@moosaquadri1829 True! Practice makes perfect :)
I have my driving license since 2 years now, and when i was getting ready to start learning i was terrified and always thought that it is very hard to drive a manual car.
It took my 3 days to learn everything Perfectly. Just find a save place to practice and PRACTICE after you have practiced for 1 hour your pretty much ready to roll.
Thanks for this man I’m about to start this helped a lot
That’s bs u didn’t learn everything perfectly in just 3 days 😂
I see we were all taught by sneaky instructors with nice Diesel cars.
That was unnecessary
Wait until the hybrids come as well 🤦
Agree
I thought i was a good driver until i drove a petrol car
@@blancaaandreea accurate af 😂
This has helped a lot because my 4th lesson I kept stalling at roundabouts and it kept stressing me out but this is a helpful video you need more recognition
Even tho i passed my driving test, still i watch ur videos, they are amazing keep up
Honestly crazy first time learning on a manual as I’m from Canada where I’ve driven an automatic all my life and it’s bloody crazy re-training my mind
Exact same boat here lol, purchasing a sports car and having to learn manual after 7 years of automatic driving …. Got on the road after 30 minutes of practice and only stalled twice… need more practice before buying 😂
I’ve only driven manual about 3-4 times in the past, and I’ve recently picked up a project car that has a manual transmission, getting more comfortable with it and boy is it fun to drive
I watched many videos but this video actually helped me not stall at the light or stop sign. I was stalling so much I wanted to give the car back to Carvana! I was so frustrated because I had everything else down ( gear shifting & down shifting) I practiced clutch control after watching video and I have NOT stalled at a light or stop sign since!! Now a shopping center parking lot was a different story but I need to remember to be in first gear so I won’t stall the car. I have owned my manual transmission for 27 days now. 44 years old and never drove a manual in my life until now. I wanted to learn and purchasing a manual would force me to learn. It’s definitely all about muscle memory. Thank You again for this video
"gas pedal WHILE you bring the clutch up, not AFTER" THANKS!!!! This has been the thing I couldn't wrap my head around for so long. I've been made so terrified of "ruining the clutch" that I kept making this mistake. I've had so much control after this little tip. THANK YOU
Yeah, that's the hard part
Not just ruining the clutch but beginners tend to give more acceleration and car can crash if you don't brake soon enough that's why driving instructors don't teach that at first
I'm crying for your clutch
nah m8 chehp repleeecementh
This video would've cleared many of my confusions about the clutch a few years ago
Thanks for online courses. Them helped me a lot ! I watched a lot of videos on your channel and i bought only 10 hours for practicing. 2 hours for passing practical. Yesterday i've passed the exam with just a liitle investment for my driving licence. Provisional+bookings+practice=430£. All of that thanks to you. You do a great job mate!!
This is really helpful. As an American we don't get drivers ed help for manual transmissions. I would have loved better instructions with training. Instead I just get told "Easy on the gas, gentle on the clutch" and I'm expected to master stick in a week.
You simplify things immensely and make it so much easier to learn, thanks for your help!
Could you make a video going over the Show me/Tell me questions and answers? I think many would find it very helpful, including myself!!
Bro you are the best, I am recommending your channel to all those who are to do lessons coz wooowww. I've been stalling my car every time I am by the traffic lights.
Great video. Driven auto all my life and prepping to switch to manual next year for a performance car.
I have been tossing around the “gas first, then ease off clutch” theory in my head for forever since I can’t practice. No one ever teaches it that way but in my opinion a bulletproof way to learn manual, since finding the clutch bite point is not the easiest thing to do for beginners.
Glad an instructor validated my thoughts today. Cheers!
Just practiced earlier with my dad and hearing you stall your car for the examples and the rattling and jumping of the interior giving me flashbacks of getting yelled at😂😂
Best way to react is to feel ashame of yourself then restart the car
I'm getting my first standard car tomorrow I watched this video 7times already you explain everything soo good I can't wait to use what I learned from you

Same here bro
I cant believe how much my driving and confidence has improved. Its so fun.
I just passed my test week ago and next day I've brought my first car but struggle to drive simply by stalling on junctions and roundabouts and my partner made me realise that I've been thought wrong how to move ( only by a clutch) and watching few videos make me really angry as and now I feel like I need to start learning to drive again and it's knocking my confidence and it's bloody frustrating.
How you feeling about it now?
Your videos have been a life saver my test is in 8 days ! X
Good luck with your test
Wow very helpful vid. Once I stalled in a red light and everybody started beeping at me, and the other time I burnt a little bit of tires, but now I wanna practice. Thx ☺️
Thank you so much. i just turned 16, and i've just starded to drive. i've only driven atomatic, but we have a second car thats manual, im thinking about trying it out next week
Thankyou. Just passed my test and brought my 1st car. The car I learnt to drive on was a 1.6 diesel citreon, but the car I brought was a 1.3 petrol mazda 2. Constant stalling or over revving, due to the differences between the cars. Hoping this will help 👍
amazing video. i just learnt how to not stall. havent stalled in my 5 most recent driving learning with my mom. best tip is to take it slow off clutch till it pulls then little gas! amazing channel!
Top tip: Learn in an instructors car so you don't destroy your own clutch when they have you holding/rolling on a hill with your clutch
Riding the clutch is the fastest way to burn it out. Dont hold a car on a hill by using the clutch. Does he know heel and toe or handbrake start.
@@anthonygraham6503 exactly. They usually have you holding the bite without the brake to get people to learn the points. I highly doubt *any* instructor will teach heel and toe. A lot of people still think it's a "racing technique"... Then wonder why everything they do is jerky.

If you are learning to drive please check out my Ultimate Driving Course. I have provided a link where the first three topics are free to access so you can get feel of what the Ultimate Driving Course is about.
I think the reason instructors teach to use the hand brake when stalling is because on a lot of cars have vacuum brake boosters that quickly lose pressure when the engine is off. That means that if you mess up your timing or fail to turn the engine on in time - you might gragually lose control of brakes and start to roll.
Never heard of that before. Brakes work at all times even when the car is off
@@rustinpeace770 they do work mechanically, but it's really hard to operate the, without boosters, which require an engine power to work.
@@rustinpeace770 also, e-brake always works, thats true
Yes. when time engine off break won't work if car in too much steep.
For me, the best way to avoid completely stalling is to just push the clutch all the way through and give half accelerator and give it some revs when the car is in the initial stage of stall but not completely stalled. This technique lets the engine breathe freely again and you don't need to restart it again. Its only been 2 weeks since i learnt it and i know you might think its not the correct way, but trust me, this method has been really helpful especially in the really slow moving traffic in india where i sometimes just lift off the clutch way too early. This helps the engine gain its natural revs back.
i remember back in march just before i had my test and i was watching your videos. i passed :)
Love the way you say 'yeah' after a sentence. Sound unique. Anyway great video man
3:36 I'd disagree because a lot of modern cars have electronic handbrakes and hill start assist. If you press the accelerator before the clutch is biting on a hill, then the car will immediately release the brakes and cause the car to roll backwards causing a dangerous situation.
I agree. I'm not a fan of the little window switches they call hand brakes these days. That physical brake and lever is what gives you the ability to control the situation for safety reasons. This is why teaching manual should be apart of driving school for all teenagers. If they have to shift, they can't text. If they have to grab their brake lever, they can't grab their phone yanno? But for all other real life situations where it would come up, I would 100% use a manual lever than a little switch.
Have one and the car is not gonna move until you release the clutch, even if you press the gas. try it
@@HagaloUstedMismo96 it will if your on a hill with an electronic handbrake. I should know, I have owned and driven 2 manual cars with electronic handbrakes. Not to mention all the hire cars I've lost count of that had the same system.
If you gas before clutch it will release the handbrake and roll back before the clutch is engaged.
Also I'm a qualified and registered engineer so can tell you that gas before clutch causes excessive clutch wear. Wear on the clutch friction plate is caused primarily by heat, the higher the speed differential between the friction plate and pressure plate the greater amount of thermal energy that must be dissipated when the clutch is engaged. It also puts more force on the damping springs in the friction plate.
@@jamiemorris7688 Brooo i do this all the time and the car never goes back, maybe it's just my car?
You probably won't see this but thank you so much, I was for once able to drive extremely smoothly without any signs that it was about to stall.
I just passed my test today, but I still feel like watching your videoes for extra tips!!
With coronavirus going on?
@@aadil8895 Yes, I live in a county where they have it under control :)
I've been watching your videos because I have been wanting to drive since 🤷.My mom finally said I can give driving a go and I even made a video about it because of how excited I was. Thank you very much for all your help.
I'm really thankful to you for this video.! I'm from India and am learning to drive.! On the 1st Day I was having problems of stalling during 1st gear pickup but I watched this video of yours and today I didnt stall at all and driving was really improved.! Thanks a lot for helping me learn to drive safely and smoothly.!
just got my first manual car i sttalled 10 times and in intersection i learned myself and these videos
One interesting fact and I never knew this until more than 1 year later i got my license: manual cars with diesel engines are less likely to stall than petrol engines.
After getting my driving licence, i very rarely drive and when i do, i use automatic. A year later, my father provide me with a manual car with diesel engine to go to school 5 times a week and i never stall.
Probably because diesels have more torque
Most people just don’t understand the concept of re-clutching after they recognise the engine will stall, they just sit there and wait until it stalls.
The thing that got me with stalling is that every car is different with this. My instructor's car I got the hang of no problem, but when I tried to practice in my parent's car I stalled like 10 times in a row. For their car, you have to really PRESS the gas for it to take, whereas is you did that in my instructor's car it would shoot forward at high speed.
It's like every car you get in you have to semi-learn how to drive all over again.
Exactly that's happening with me rn
Stalled 4 - 5 times on my test guys, as long as you keep your composure and correct it and drive off again it's fine i passed. Was because of nerves had shakey foot.
Well done on passing your test
@@DGNDriving thank you your videos really helped me prepare for it 👍🏼

Select the right gear: use the palming and thumb up, thumb down method, feel the gear selector springs. Set the gas: gently depress the gas pedal and hold it. Gently lift up clutch: gradually bring it up through the bite and car will move away. Stay calm and practice lots. Best wishes
Not me watching this video after I passed my driving test and found out my instructor taught me wrong 😭😭😭
I stalled 3 times on an uphill heavy traffic. I had a little bit struggle on starting the engine 3rd time because of the battery I think.
Experience is your best friend.
it took me forever to realize the wheel was on the right side of the car. I was wondering why it looked so weird
THANK U SO MUCH
i'm learning a manual car on my own and this really helps
Partially engaging the clutch will stop the car from rolling back at a steep road,but it's a bad habit because it will make too much wear on the clutch disc,use handbrake instead
Clutch manufacturers love his teaching style.
Can I highly recommend you do a video on where to position your side mirrors please.
I learnt about only using the clucth this tome instead of using gas/accelerator. Thanks man that helped to learn something new and make live more easier.
the way i avoid stalling is just holding in the clutch, redlining then dropping it really quickly, once i get up to about 10-15 mph then i let off and i have no use for the clutch at that point /s
U are very good teacher! ur vids are helpful,i was using diesel car in my driving lessons ,and i will have to drive petrol car in my real exam,after watching this i feel more confident ,u are actually very good at teaching,thanks.
I believe that this man helped me pass as much as my driving instructor thanks a lot
Just had my first lesson today as a key worker thanks for all your videos
1:23 "an uphill road like this" - if that's uphill you should see Bristol *shudder*
Thank you. I really needed help in this part of driving. This really helped!
I’m only 13 and watching driving lesson vids 😂
My brothers taught me how to drive manual and automatic and ITS FUN!!!
This was really helpful, my instructor didn't teach me what to do in this situation aside from obviously restarting the car. I didn't know that you could start the car while it is rolling 🤭
