Manual Transmissions
Clutch: The clutch is a disc located between the engine and the transmission. Depressing the clutch pedal disengages the engine from the transmission, allowing you to switch gears.
Gearshift: You use the gearshift to select the different gear combinations within the transmission, matching the car's speed and desired power output.
Synchronizers: Modern manual transmissions have synchronizers that match the speed of gears before they engage, allowing for smooth gear changes.
