to change gear, just follow this steps:
1st gear - 0 to 20km (15)
2nd gear - 15 to 35km (30)
3rd gear - 30 to 45km (40)
4th gear - 40km above
5th gear - 70km
increase speed gear up,decrease speed gear down. -

he meant by listening to the engine sound or feeling any vibration then start to change ur gear. lookin at meter closely might prone u a bad habit of turning the steering wheel while changing gear.Originally posted by xShevchenkox:this, l noe, but my dad tell me dun nid see the meter de...must use ur feeling..but l still dun noe what is that feeling abt? sum say must hear the growl or whine sound , sum say if car nid to change gear liao..car will vibrate alot.. -

l tink those 20+ lesson can riaos..is those zai de lorOriginally posted by sinicker:24 lessons in CDC. -
I ish nvr take any lessons.
I ish learn by delivering tofu for my father. -
i took about 29 lessons if i remember correctly. wtf my sis only took 27 lessons. So sad lose to her.
but i think no of lessons getting more and more as driving centre wants to earn more. -
I took less than ten lessons be4 i went for TP.. Reason being i knew how to drive le.. Thanks to daddy dearest.. Thw world is nvr fair.. haha.. My advice to xShevchenkox.. Look at the RPM meter.. usually in the cars you learn to drive are those between 1.3 to 1.6 litres.. so you can try lookin at the RPM instead of lookin at the speedometer.. cuz rememberin those digits may be stressful as you are new.. try to change gear be4 2300RPM.. i think you will do juz fine.. dunno if i'm right.. but this was wat my insructor told me.. you can learn to listen to your engine after you pass your TP.

but l cannot always look de mah...so l guess the best is noe how to feel loOriginally posted by Froz3nFir3:I took less than ten lessons be4 i went for TP.. Reason being i knew how to drive le..

by the 3rd or 4th lesson you should be able to handle the car quite well already.
i completed all the modules liao, 19 lessons. intending to book another 3 more revision lessons before my TP test in a month. -
20 lessons including revision in bbdc passed 1st time
Changing gears can be fun..and yeah as someone stated earlier before looking at the rpm meter is the best.. like below 3000 is healthy for a car 1.3 to 1.6L or just remember how the engine sound like at 2500rpm,when u hear that type of sound the engine produce shift up!
hope it helps[/quote] -

1st gear is just to get car moving, no need to see rpm or speedo and all that fcuk, right after its 2nd gear loh. -

listen to the engine sound..
i took 22 lessons n went for TP.. 1st lesson shifting is good alrdy as my dad is a taxi driver and be4 that he drove lorries.. so the engine sound is sorta a 2nd nature to me.. and of cos i love cars!! ( e parts, performance and stuffs ) but of cos i drag gears alot.. i like to rev high n listen to the sound.. ahh.. but always tio instructor nag n nag..
1st time passed.. e onli time i reali look at the RPM meter is when i was driving a car i rented for 3days and its redline is at 6.5k so i gotta keep an eye on it at every gear change..

me less than 15 i think
