How to start-up my car - Toyota Yaris Forums

yaris814 · 01-14-2013, 05:31 PM

I've never driven a stick shift Yaris, but in my '88 BMW, I can start the car with depressing the clutch pedal only, whereas my '11 Porsche requires depressing both clutch and brake pedal to start the car. Because of that, I've developed a habit of putting the car in neutral first (not necessary), then depress both pedals, then start the car.

what you should do is choose the one point that you mentioned it. but it should only be the Clutch just enough. common mistakes people do is when they want to start the engine but the vehicle is not in neutral
