Foot on the clutch: It’s not just novice drivers who like to put their foot on the clutch pedal so that they don’t have to go so far when changing gears. As a result, the clutch does not close properly, so that the friction linings constantly rub against each other and wear out quickly. But the left foot does not only belong next to the pedal while driving. Also at the traffic light. Standing on the pedal when a gear is engaged not only prevents the start-stop system from switching off the engine, but also unnecessarily burdens the mechanics, namely the clutch spring and release bearing.
Expensive or dangerous – avoid these eight mistakes when driving!
