What's up everyone, welcome to my channel again
and it has been like
one week that I didn't do any video
and today I'm doing one
hopefully it's not going to rain later
and if you realize I'm not in the Persona today
I'm in a Perodua Kancil
It's belong to my mum and
and honestly Kancil is like
better than Persona in terms of fun
it has even more fun if you drive a Kancil
because of everything is mechanical and
you need to race your car in order to match the speed of traffic
well today I'm driving a Kancil
not to talk about it's good or bad
but talking about slip clutch
so what is slip clutch
it is basically a nightmare of manual car
or clutch-based CVT
if your car have a clutch
you're going to experience slip clutch
in the future maybe in 10 years
it marks the end of life of clutch
and this car is already more than 10 years
it already experience slip clutch
so how do you know if your car have a slip clutch
for normal car
if you don't match your RPM when shifting the gear
you'll experience a jerk
like this
but if your clutch is slipping
you won't experience that much
and if you are driving very slow in a very high gear
like in a 5th gear driving 40km/h
and then you try to floor it
in normal car you only stress the engine
and it's very bad for an engine
but if your car has a slip clutch
it won't
the RPM just rise up like you are in neutral
and slip clutch can be dangerous also
slipping means more friction
and more friction means more heat
and everyone know heat is not a good things
heat is only good if you're doing a cold start
besides that, you have a meter to track the engine temperature
but you don't have meter to track your clutch or transmission temperature
so who know your clutch is overheating or
it's going to burn or something
you can't track it
next, if your clutch is slipping
engine brake is no longer work
if you drive a manual and you leave your car in gear
and you didn't step the clutch
and you brake
it actually brake faster
because of the friction and inertia of engine
but if the clutch is slipping
those thing no longer affect your braking
so what can you do if your car experience clutch slip
and you are waiting for a free time or appointment to fix your car
well it's better that your don't drive your car
but if it happens that you have to drive your car
there is actually some technique
such as double clutch shifting
Double clutch shifting is a technique that
most of the bus driver or lorry driver used
so double clutch shifting is like when you want to shift from 3rd to 4th
Press the clutch
move to neutral
release clutch
press again the clutch
move to 4th
release clutch
and continue to drive
it can be fast
like this
and it can be used for downshift
next is throttle control
when you realize your RPM is going faster
you can reduce little bit of throttle
it is very simple
just release little bit of throttle
until the RPM match
and if you are very good at manual
you can perform a clutchless shift
as the name said
you shift a gear without using a clutch
it can be done but
you need a 100% perfect rev matching
and 100% perfect shifting
so that you don't need to press clutch
which is very hard
and if you mess up with it
you are wearing another part which is more expensive
which is the gear
you don't want to mess up with the gear
so it's better that you don't use that technique although it works
so clutch slip will eventually happen to your manual or clutch-based CVT car
it's just the matter of time, like mostly after 10 years
but you can extend the life of the clutch
by just changing some driving style
such as only press the clutch fully or release fully
don't press it half way
next, do not move your car inch by inch
don't "inch"-ing the car
and then avoid doing a clutch start
if you're doing a hill start
use your handbrake or if you have Hill Hold Assist
use that system
next, try not to rest your left leg on clutch pedal
just move your leg to the side
or to the floor or somewhere else
because if you rest your foot on you clutch pedal
you tend to press the clutch a little bit
and hence wear up the clutch
so I hope you find this video informative
do give a thumbs up, share it your friends
and if you haven't, subscribe to me
and I'll see you in the next video, next week
