Manual Transmission Club

[RavensEyeOffroad]

I'm going to make an actual video review of the manual transmission Saturday evening.

Any luck?

So I thought I liked the manual when I brought it home despite a feel that was ever so slightly...off. But it was ok, still fun to drive, etc. Then I found out about hill start assist and how to turn it off; did that today, and it makes all the difference. The clutch feel seems crisper, there’s no hesitation, drives 100% better from my point of view.

Some people like the hill start assist, but if you test drive, try it with it on and with it off, it makes a difference.

Clever response to get @Berserker556 back off a little...for now

I already took delivery of my JT but I come back to this thread once in awhile and see how persistent you are

If I cannot get the gopro working this weekend I'll mount my phone and use that. I'm serious about making a video. My life is just work work work. I have Friday off, 3 day weekend

I've had to do a lot of basics and necessary things first.

Few trips to the dump

Put side steps on

Buy wife furniture

I'm sure we all appreciate you doing so! Would love to see the video as well and compare my thoughts with yours. I'm interested to hear what other people think about the manual tranny.

I was going to link articles on how to fix it but I figured I'll get kicked off this board if I don't back off for a day or two lol

As good a place to start as any. Thanks for your videos and time bro.

@Berserker556 just for you

I know it's not the greatest video but you can see what I do well and what I struggle with in this video.

I learnt manual on old Hondas without rpm gages. My own manual cars have been a 2008 VW new beetle (shift by wire) and a 1990 NA Miata (not shift my wire).

have you turned off your hill start assist as @919Jeep mentioned above? if so, is it off in this video?
