I still prefer the manual transmission models, the reason is very simple, one is the feeling of the manual transmission, the second is the strength in the shift step on the clutch. Remember when the car, often to see the strength gap with the ability and old drivers to step on the clutch between.

Now the urban traffic situation is not as good as before, especially during rush hours, stop the people very tangled. As I opened the car is a manual block, the day for a long time to develop the habit of frequent step on the clutch, the car clutch is also particularly fast wear.

Car mainly want to drive freely, the clutch is the first to bear the brunt of the importance of the clutch. But how to properly use the clutch it?

No matter do not step on the clutch

First of all, in our car when the coach will tell us this sentence: "clutch." This is because the car on the clutch in the normal operation of the tight junction, the clutch should be no slip. In addition to the car when the car start, shift and low speed brake need to step on the clutch pedal, the other time do not have nothing to step on the clutch, or the foot on the clutch pedal.

If the arbitrary step on the clutch, the first is easily caused by slipping clutch, clutch ablation phenomena, and the second will result in the failure of the clutch pressure springs annealing, but also lead to oil fees, car fees, increase the cost of driving. Of course, the foot long time on the clutch will also lead to fatigue, so it is difficult to grasp the intensity of the clutch.

Reduce clutch wear

In order to reduce clutch wear, first of all should be clear of the clutch slave cylinder structure is set on the transmission input shaft sleeve, it is rely on the clutch pressure plate pass separation bearing to pump provides the return force, so the usual separation bearing always contact the pressure plate. When the clutch pedal, the clutch pressure plate and compression by separating the separation bearing to make.

The following methods can effectively reduce the wear of the clutch. Using a starting block, in order to get started when the maximum torque and reduce the overload clutch; reduce the clutch is in a state of semi linkage and use should be on the clutch pedal, use completely released, in order to ensure the complete separation of the clutch and reliable combination; the initial success of should as soon as possible loose clutch, reduce the friction clutch pressure plate and compression is not necessary.

Proper use of clutch

Here we have to say that the correct use of the clutch. At the start, we should remember a pithy formula essentials -- a "fast, two slow, three linkage." Is when the pedal is lifted to lift the start, when the clutch is a semi linkage, the pedal up the speed of a slightly slower; by the linkage to the complete combination of the process, the pedal slowly lift. When the clutch pedal is raised, the accelerator pedal is stepped on the accelerator pedal according to the resistance of the engine.

With the start, and then look at the correct operation of the shift. Many novice in the open hand to block the car is always a good grasp of the clutch and gear. In fact, very simple, when shifting in the car, the steering clutch pedal should be quickly stepped down and lifted, do not appear on the phenomenon of semi linkage, otherwise, will accelerate the wear of the clutch. In addition, the operation should pay attention to the situation with the accelerator.

Do not place the foot on the clutch pedal during normal running to ensure the full engagement of the clutch. Also in the downtown travel speed deceleration not premature step on the clutch pedal, fell within a reasonable range and then step on the clutch pedal decreased clutch idling. When parking should pick neutral, release the clutch pedal so as to avoid increasing the burden of clutch.

Above are the driving process of the maintenance of the clutch, the clutch is very important for the hand of the car, no matter the parking, low speed, shift and have a direct contact with.
