should you rest your foot on the clutch pedal while you drive or will it wear the clutch prematurely?

Google it

Avoid sitting in the car seats too long as it will wear them too quickly
>>
>>14154128
I take my foot off if I'm just cruising. In city traffic, I'll just leave it on because lol 10 gears.
It's just asking for bad habits and trouble if your foot is always on there.
>>
>>14154128
This is called "riding the clutch".
It is bad. Don't do it.
>>
>>14154128
Keep your foot off the clutch pedal unless you're gonna use it. Otherwise you'll burn through more clutches than a chainsmoker burns through cigarettes.

>>14154148
not necessarily

>>14154186
Yes and no.
If you're clutch is already eaten up it wont matter.
If it still had plenty of meat then what >>14154144
>>14154148 said is true.
Also not depressing the clutch pedal all the way down while at an intersection and holding it there will also burn through it.

Don't do it. Keep your heel in the same position and rotate your foot to the left just a bit.
>>
Rest on the dead pedal.
>>
>>14154128
As long as you're not actually depressing it, resting lightly on it shouldn't be an issue.
>>
>>14154694
That is still slightly slipping it. Just put your foot on the floor, OP.
>>
>>14154701
Maybe if you have fat feet or wear cement shoes.
>>
>>14154752
It might not be much of a difference but there is some, and it's just bad practice if you ever get a car with a more sensitive pedal.
>>
it should be ok if you're just resting your foot, but there's too much of a chance your foot will start depressing it and will cause wear. it's better just to use the dead pedal.
>>
>>14154880
Fair enough, I'm used to driving barges with heavy as fuck clutches.

Why is manuel so hard to learn OMFG?! Its so complicated to learn.

Get a real engine.
>>14154128
Or you just don't rest your foot on a pedal, faggot.
>>
>>14155542
It's not?
