December 5th, 2019 05:36 PM #1Mga sir sinearch ko sa net kung bakit ginagawa to, eto ung mga reason na nahanap ko, pakicorrect na lang po.
1. Para hindi umabante kung sakaling nakagear (obvious naman to).
2. Some cars have clutch safety switch, kailangan talagang ipress ang clutch para mastart.
3. Less strain sa starter.
May nagsabi naman na pag pinress mo ang clutch bago ka magstart may added stress sa crankshaft thrust bearings, specially pag cold engine.
Anu po ang totoo jan? Thanks

Just for the reasons you stated in #1 and #2.
It's just a safety feature. Iwas SUA.

December 5th, 2019 06:07 PM #5Been a while since I've driven a manual hehe. My dad also taught me that. Press on the clutch para iwas kadyot. I remember my ex would always get mad at me for this. I would sometimes drive her car. So when I park her car, I put the gear in 1st gear when I turn it off. She naman, was taught not to press on the clutch when starting the car. So palaging nag kadyot yung car niya when she starts it (after I park it) hehe.

Yes, it's an added precaution to ensure the gears won't engage when you start your vehicle.

The clutch is a mechanical switch that connects your wheels to the engine so it's purely mechanical not electrical

December 5th, 2019 07:38 PM #8Walang silbi yan pag tapak mo sa clutch kung hindi mo din nilagay sa neutral yung kambyo.. kasi pag start mo for sure iaangat mo yung paa mo so kakadyot ka din...
Best practice pa din mag triple check kung naka neutral ka then press the brakes together with the clutch

December 5th, 2019 08:07 PM #9Not a mechanical interlock, its actually an electrical switch just like the brake light switch under the pedal connected to the ECM that controls the IPDM and ignition switch. Depressing the pedal turns it to on position, a logic state needed to turn the starter. On most AT's you won't be able to start the engine without depressing the brake, these are some of safety features and written on the user manual.
