nothing wrong just a little slow. try to find a small hill were not a lot of people are and just keep trying it over and over until you get it. you just need more practice i have been driving one for 10 years and sometimes still roll back |

More gas less clutch. You just need to practice on a empty street until you get it. |

It sounds like you're not giving the engine enough gas. |

You might want to practice a bit more on clutch operation. Find a gentle up hill grade, stop the car, hold it there, then practice working the clutch, the brake pedal, and gas pedal in co-ordination with the tendency for the car wanting to roll backwards. Some people find they can use the right foot to work both the brake and gas pedals (toe & heel) such that the car doesn't have a chance to roll backwards. Some people find they like to use the hand brake to keep the car from rolling backwards. It takes a little practice. |

You gotta learn to " catch" the car before it rolls which is letting the clutch out and giving it " the gas" more. It takes a little practice but I'm sure you will be a pro before long. |

When you are on a hill you have to make the clutch gas transition a little quicker. If you are have some time and are stopped at a light, slowly bring your foot off the clutch until you feel it start to grab, try to hold it there for a bit so you can get the feel of it, then (when it's your turn to go) slowly, but smoothly add the gas, you shouldn't roll back much. Try to lay off the break when practicing, but its a good idea to keep your Ebrake ready until you get the hang of it. |

Nothing your doing is wrong you just need to speed up what your doing. On the gas a little quicker and harder and up with the clutch quicker. This will take some time to find the balance so your not stalling , rolling back too far , or spin the tires . Practise practise practise. It will take time to find the sweet spot and every car or truck is different Good luck and safe driving |

I know, I know!!!!

practice using your clutch. go to an area with a hill where there is no traffic and just take off there over and over until you get the feel of it. |

Tack it out and drop the clutch! Savor the scent of burned rubber and revel in your smoke cloud you leave behind. Enjoy! |

Even the best drivers will roll back a little in a stick when they are on a hill. If you are rolling all the way down the hill until you hit the bottom, then you have a problem. |

The car will roll backwards on hill untill you press the break or press the gas. You aren't doing anything wrong. |
