How your car always knows how much fuel is left 🤯

[Shiva @shivaXdrives]

here’s why skoda vw cars burn their clutch much faster than other cars, & how you can save yours:

first of all, in almost every car, a burnt clutch is usually a driving issue rather than a manufacturing defect.

the bigger problem is that many indian drivers don’t understand how turbo-petrol engines deliver torque. they drive a turbo engine like an old NA engine, & that’s where the clutch starts suffering.

for ex, 1.0TSI produces 178Nm of torque from around 1800-4400 rpm. the engine has strong pulling power almost throughout the rev range.

compare that to a typical 1.5NA petrol, which starts making around 136Nm at 4400 rpm. to get decent performance, NA engines naturally need more revs, so people develop the habit of revving them out. but with a turbo engine, you already have the torque much earlier.

here’s what people do wrong:

- riding the clutch:
a lot of people put the car in 2nd gear at 8kph cause apparently *1st gear feels too jerky*.
then the engine boggs down to 550rpm coming to a near stall and then they rev it 4500rpm for the next 20 seconds.

now the clutch is doing double duty - trying to get the car moving while handling a sudden burst of torque. repeatedly doing this creates heat & accelerates clutch wear.

- bumper-to-bumper traffic:
the classic mistake is using half clutch + throttle to crawl through traffic. the clutch is not a speed control device; it is meant to smoothly engage & disengage.

in slow traffic, either let the car crawl in 1st gear or fully disengage the clutch when stopping. don’t keep it slipping for minutes.

- Hills:
holding the car on an incline using the clutch is one of the quickest ways to burn it. use Hill Hold Control if your car has it, or use the old handbrake method to move off smoothly.

- also don’t rest your foot on the clutch, use the dead pedal.

i have personally done 15k+ kms in my manual virtus 1.0TSI without any clutch issues. And i also have friends with 22k + kms on VirtusGT manuals and 30k+ kms on Slavia 1.5 manuals still running their original clutches.

at the same time, some people have managed to burn their clutch in just a 3k kms.

so before blaming the car, look at how it’s being driven. a turbo engine rewards smooth inputs - treat it correctly, and the clutch will last.

& need i not tell you that clutch is one of the most durable & abuse-friendly components of a car. so if you prematurely burn your clutch then maybe you’re the problem.
