500 meters downhill with the clutch pressed?
Hey, I did something stupid today. I drove down a steep hill (about 500 km/h) in second gear with the clutch depressed, and braked occasionally. Could anything have happened besides excessive wear on the brakes and clutch?
So if it was a one-time thing.
As soon as you enter the clutch, your car goes into the “Leerlauf” and uses fuel to run around the engine. When you let him roll in 3 gears, the engine runs with almost no sprit because the pistons in the cylinder are driven by the movement of the wheels. Next time gear in, not brake too high speed and at the same time, this saves fuel.
There’s nothing to fit as long as you don’t turn beyond the speed limiter. But if you’ve put your clutch there’s nothing happening (:
LG
should be over 1,500 turns
Sure, but not beyond the limiter as I wrote.
..that should remain a one-time thing, otherwise the brakes will be
hot and you need new brake pads.
If the brake is quickly released several times in succession, it may happen that the vacuum accumulator of the brake booster runs empty and the support effect drops away. Then suddenly a much higher pedal force is required.
Otherwise, the brake is designed for much stronger loads than you have assumed after your description, e.g., downhill with heavy trailer, full braking from 200 Km/h to zero Km/h.
Aside from some fine-dust brake abrasion, nothing happened at all.
Thank you very much
when the engine is running it has vacuum for the brake
This is clear but because of the low speed, wenif vacuum is generated so that repeated pedaling and releasing of the brake pedal can empty the vacuum accumulator
a gasoline has the highest negative pressure
Hi, no. The danger would be that the brakes overheat, the water fraction of the brake fluid evaporates, and if the long no longer changed, one suddenly enters the void. The clutch doesn’t do that.
Especially for longer mountain trips than 500 m you have to watch.
When the clutch is engaged, the motor is idle and not in the sliding mode. This means that the thrust shut-off does not come into effect and the engine uses fuel.
What’s that supposed to happen? You just disconnected the connection of motor and drive. There’s nix. Garnix.
And from time to time on braking is also no problem as long as you do not drive directly into a puddle. Motor brake would have been a bit healthier for the brakes but the power nix.
On the clutch you have no excessive wear, only on the brakes.
In addition, these will become hot due to the excessive load, which can lead to a wobble of the disc in the case of padded roads.
I wouldn’t worry too much, 500m isn’t much. In mountainous regions too much and over long distances have to be braked.
Aso thank you, I made my head full
By the way, you would notice a wobble of the brake in the form of strong vibrations during strong braking of high speeds. But I don’t think it has happened.
Okay.
No, no problem
Didn’t know how to deal with it, had never had it in the driving school
When you get all the curves, everything is okay
You have strained your release bearing, as well as waste the brake pads and, in addition, sprit, because you have not used the thrust shut-off.
Is it bad with a single thing?
I drove down again and then always inlaid 1st gear in the stand gas and gradually braked
Can anything have happened now, except the excessive wear on brake and clutch?
as for 500m what should have happened big for it was simply too short
