Engage brain. Double check brain engaged. Car in Neutral. Right foot on middle brake peddle Left foot on Park brake peddle Keep brain engaged Release Park brake with right hand (RH Drive obviously) -and raise left foot to allow peddle to rise to top of its travel. Select chosen gear as normal ......and off you go. It becomes automatic procedure after a while - just wish I could convince my Wife to use it - I hate the clunk. Obviously if you're going for a hill start - Roys suggestion is a good one too (hadn't thought of that either). Off road - if you've got to use it half way up anything steeper than a wheelchair ramp - good luck.....:-) Auto definitely better for this.... |

I did this because I didn't like the "clunk" noise. I thought it cant be doing the car any good to have such a harsh release. Even the driver who delivered my car, when showing me around it he told me to pull it and let it "clunk". I think if you check the manual it lists the softer approach as the method to release. |
