I've always wondered on my Jetta whether or not this would "save" the clutch as long as you can downshift/upshift correctly without grinding anything... If you only used the clutch for coming to a stop and then starting out in first gear, then did the clutchless shifting thing the rest of the time (and did it right), could you get much more out of your clutch or is it that first gear takeoff that causes most of the wear? ===== -------------------------------------------- 1971 FI AT Squareback http://www.tiserves.com/VW/ vw_variant71@yahoo.com -------------------------------------------- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
