    yup tama sila lahat...

    - more practice
    - feel the engine
    - shift at correct speed/rpm

    1. What will happen if you are running at 4rth gear. Then went to press the brake. Speed drops at around 20kmph. Tas apak lang ulit sa gas?

    2.what if you are running at around 45-50kmph, brake momentarily.
    Shift to 3rd gear. Then car hesitates
    Yung bang sobrang pigil nya tumakbo lahit anong tapak sa gas. Ano po kaya ng yare pag ganon?

    1. you can slow down but the revs will drop to a point the engine will stall. if this is an evasive emergency manueaver you won't have the engine brake to assist you and it will take a while to downshift. and if you stall you might lose brake pressure and steering assist. downshift if you need to slow down.

    now accelerating from 20kph at 4th gear is called lugging. it's not good as explained by this guy

    Why You Should Never Lug Your Engine (Especially Turbos) - YouTube


    2. if the car hesitates then you're at a gear too high, downshift
    . this is still lugging...

    What vehicle are you referring in the first place?

    Singit din ito. Nowadays, with the popularity of a/t transmissions, less & less people learn to drive stick (manual). The best way to learn proper driving is by stick, knowing & feeling the proper gear shifts, not by looking at the speedo or the tach, but just by the sound of the engine. Knowing when to brake then what gear to use when turning & entering a street, approaching humps (maraming namamatayan ng makina dyan), quick gear downshifts when overtaking or changing lanes. The hand-eye-feet coordination honed driving manual is a skill you can never get driving auto. It is also a skill you can use in your auto with a sportronic tranny. DonÂ’t you know you have more control of the car in a bend with proper downshifts? How many times have I gotten myself out of potential trouble using proper braking, gear changes & modulation of the revs with the clutch? I insisted on my son learning stick in driving school & his friends are in awe.

    BTT. To add, different vehicles have different dynamics depending on the condition of tyres, thickness of brakes, gearing of tranny, engine performance, suspension ride quality, steering feel& ergonomics of controls. Practice and mastery of these dynamics lets you adapt to the car making it like part of your body whenever you drive it. Try switching cars after another..after another, and you'd know what i mean. There is also this saying that "a good driver is also a mechanic" which means the driver understands how the machine works..

    1. At 20kph, even nasa kalsada ka na slightly sloping downwards, medyo kelangan mo na mag-shift to 3rd gear kahit momentarily lang just to get the car up to speed para maka-shift ka sa 4th.

    2. At 50kph dapat wala na masyadong hesitation at 3rd gear. Check your engine or transmission condition.

    Boss ano po mang yayare if nasa 4rth gear ka tas nag preno ka onti pero mabilis parin arangkada tas bigla kang nag down shift sa 3rd?

    Yung sa sentra ko na 97 kasi kabisado ko pasok ng kambyo.

    Yung sa almera ko ngayon medyo nalilito ako sa makina nya. Parang di kami nagkakaintindihan.

    Thanks for your input

    Pakinggan mo lang makina. Know when to shift. Kahit anong car na dala mo, no need na sumilip sa rev and speed
