Changing Gear Without Stepping on Clutch

[tonyboy]

mga sir,

while driving the other day i accidentally shifted from 3rd gear to neutral without stepping on the clutch. sabi ng friend ko sya nga daw minsan nag shi-shift sya ng gear without stepping on the clutch from 2nd to 3rd and so on. wala naman daw grinding noise. any thoughts on this? TIA.

technically, being in gear means that naka lock sa gear yung sasakyan and you need the clutch to disengage from the lock.
baka may masira dun sa transmission.

nagtataka din ako, matigas yung kambyo from a gear to neutral ah, pano nya ginawa yun?

Ginagawa ko din yan gear to neutral hindi naman mabigat pag shift. pag gear to gear ayun, need mo talaga apakan clutch matigas na kasi un.

basta naka match yung engine speed sa transmission speed at sa vehicle speed makaka shift ka without stepping on the clutch...

smooth shift yan..

Yup. Minsan sobrang pagod ko nakakalimutan ko mag-clutch from gear to neutral. Pumapasok naman, tapos kapag narerealize ko, nawawala pagod ko at mas nagiging alert.

Meron sa Youtube ganyan, search niyo nalang: Clutchless shifting. I'm not sure if this is safe at all. Kung ayaw naman mag-clutch, mag-automatic nalang kaysa i-risk pa transmission niyo.

Easy-peasy. Let off the gas a little so you can pop it into neutral, then rev it up to the proper rpm if you're downshifting or let the revs drop if you're upshifting.

Easier to do on some cars than others. I sometimes do this in my truck when my feet hurt. Tend not to do it on test units, as it's not my synchros I'm grinding when I get it wrong.

thanks mga sirs sa inputs. medyo nag worry lang kasi ako baka may sira sa transmission ko nung na shift ko from gear to neutral.

naalala ko dati, nasiraan ng clutch yung auv, gabi, pauwi pa lang kami ng cavite, naiuwi ko naman, kahit walang clutch. mas maaga ka lang talaga dapat mag change gear, at dapat malakas din ang battery mo. It is not advisable, pero kung wala na iba option, it can be done. ;)

sabi mo nga accidentally mo lang nagawa. if intentional at lagi mo gagawin yan, then it could do harm in the long run (if not immediately).

Same here. From Caloocan to Bulacan, wala akong clutch pero nakakapag-shift naman ako. Gamit ko pa dati yun FX namin.
