Steep start - Toyota Yaris Forums

Zaphod · 04-27-2010, 04:31 PM

I have noticed that happen when I accidentally dumped the clutch.

Did you just get the car? The clutch and throttle takes a little getting used to. Heck, my girlfriend starts in 1st better than I do.

It's all what you're used to, and I'm still spoiled by higher torque and smoother clutches.

But fear not, you'll be a master of the car soon enough. I would also suggest using the cable brake for smoother starts on hills.

It's the toughest clutch I've ever had to learn.
