no you cant move the car at 5th gear... in most of the vehicles the 5th gear will be the top gear and gear ratio is nearly equal to 1. if we move the vehicle in that gear means the clutch wear will be very high and we should give more acceleration for moving the vehicle. top gears are meant only for higher speeds and it will not provide that much torque to move a vehicle.
so don't try this in any vehicle... to the last extent we can try in second gear
Yes, it's possible.
Even I have done it with Tata Safari in 4th gear.
I put the car in 4th gear(top is 5th) and paddled the accelerator to half and released the clutch very slowly.
I have also done this with Fiat Palio and Maruti-800 in 4th gear.
It all depends on your gear ratios.. And u need to have a strong , rev-happy engine, good control on clutch to do that. But, it is not advisable as it will result in fall of fuel efficiency.
Powerful engine... Fack load of revs n a feathery foot on the clutch.... Really powerful engine mind
Depends on car
Yeah you should be able to with alot of throttle and good clutch control, but it won't do your engine or clutch any favours
yes u can but rack out clutch plate and spend 4 k to change it at least
Ya we able to move but u need exp
Never try this. It can damage your engine, transmission and catalytic converter
lol if you want to mess up your transmission...
