(2nd gear only goes up to about 60mph)

2018-08-03 22:56:45 UTC  

Yeah, the clutch is not physically connected to the shift lever though, what system would be releasing the hold in your mind?

2018-08-03 22:57:09 UTC  

Googling, but google's not telling me anything

2018-08-03 22:57:15 UTC  

Something with sensors, extra parts, electronics, additional linkages, literally what I just said.

2018-08-03 22:57:42 UTC  

I mean you're not gonna find a system you just made up on google.

2018-08-03 22:57:58 UTC  

That...isn't what I'm looking for

2018-08-03 22:58:10 UTC  

I'm looking to see if anything at all exists that prevents misshifts

2018-08-03 22:58:11 UTC  

At all

2018-08-03 22:58:22 UTC  

I'll retract my statement that started this

2018-08-03 22:58:30 UTC  

It was me being too certain

2018-08-03 22:59:39 UTC  

Ah

2018-08-03 22:59:44 UTC  

So lockouts do exist.

2018-08-03 22:59:51 UTC  

Just not exactly the way I thought

2018-08-03 22:59:57 UTC  

Yes, well obviously reverse lockout exists.

2018-08-03 22:59:59 UTC  

They're synchros

2018-08-03 23:00:08 UTC  

Not what I meant

2018-08-03 23:00:31 UTC  

Literally the first guy is talking about other lockouts on his 98 Tacoma

2018-08-03 23:00:45 UTC  

Obviously, not nearly the same as preventing all misshifts period

2018-08-03 23:01:04 UTC  

the closest thing to misshift prevention I can think of

2018-08-03 23:01:05 UTC  

They're talking about synchros, this is totally unrelated to the clutch pedal

2018-08-03 23:01:15 UTC  

Like I said

2018-08-03 23:01:20 UTC  

is the nissan 370z auto rev matching on a downshift

2018-08-03 23:01:21 UTC  

Not the way I thought it worked

2018-08-03 23:01:32 UTC  

but that's not really a misshift prevention

2018-08-03 23:01:43 UTC  

I mean all of these posts re just descriptions of how a transmission works to begin with.

2018-08-03 23:03:17 UTC  

...are we talking about the same thing?

2018-08-03 23:03:30 UTC  

Whatever. My question was answered and i conceded

2018-08-03 23:04:27 UTC  

I just don't see why there would be a market need for something specifically locking shifts unless the pedal is depressed, because the assumption would be someone knows they're driving a manual transmission. Unless it's happening all the time that would be a big waste of engineering. And if someone is trying to shift without the clutch all the time they might as well just have something that actuates the clutch for them like a sequential or a dct.

2018-08-03 23:05:11 UTC  

The cintext was different earlier

2018-08-03 23:05:26 UTC  

I mean I'm talking about what you brought up, nothing in that reddit post is talking about that, it's just talking about how solenoids and synchros work, which applies to basically all modern manuals.

2018-08-03 23:05:43 UTC  

Originally it was about dcts built to LACK this feature actually

2018-08-03 23:06:08 UTC  

What?

2018-08-03 23:07:10 UTC  

Long story

2018-08-04 00:06:47 UTC  

is my discord fucking up

2018-08-04 00:10:15 UTC  

🤷🏿

2018-08-04 00:54:53 UTC  

That feel when you parked and about to get out and you are on your phone amd forget that you didnt turn the car off yet

2018-08-04 00:55:17 UTC  

So foot comes off the clutch, the car jerks forward and stalls and ya look like a moron

2018-08-04 01:18:11 UTC  

I don't usually leave my car in gear

2018-08-04 01:18:26 UTC  

but I also don't forget my car is running

2018-08-04 01:19:34 UTC  

nor am I likely to get out on the phone, my headunit has hands free and it's technically illegal here to use a phone in any capacity while the engine is running
