    teaching my partner how to drive stick, it’s really difficult to do it with a newer car. the anti-stall feature is super unintuitive for beginners because they couldn’t appreciate where the biting point is.

    for example, i brought her to a slight incline to let her experience engaging and disengaging the clutch, but really - she’s just toggling the on-off switch for the ECU to add throttle to prevent stalling.

      Learned stick but drive auto nowadays and probably forgotten how to drive stick. But I can feel your words, reminds me of learning my my Dad’s old Saga where the biting point is very specific. Stalled it most of the time XD. Edit: grammar and double typed

        i learned mine on the Perodua Viva, was clapped as fuck and the clutch was made of a bucket of shit and chewing gum or sth so loose.

        during exam they had the new Viva and it was so tight and snug, stalled the car lol.

      Same here, nostrils were bombarded with the smell of haze the moment I swung open the window expecting it to be a chilly day. Ruined it completely smh.

      Edit: typos, I hate typing on my phone XD

    Driving an EV that have no creep feature is weird as it is driving it up a 4 post ram is terrifying. I know there is a setting but the owner set the car in Chinese so I just had to deal with it.

      Hang in there buddy. I woke up and I feel like I want to go back to sleep 🌚

      Funnily enough, I slept for only 4hours yesterday and I felt more awake than ever. I think it’s my sleep cycle causing issues because I tend to be stuck in a dream at about the time I usually wake of I sleep 7/8 hours.
