-I could care less how it works in the engine. I just want to know how it relates to driving a manual. The guides for driving a manual do a terrible job of explaining the whole friction point thing.
ThanksFriction point, sometimes known as the biting point, is the point at which, when releasing the clutch, that the car begins to move, the point where you should accelerate as you release the clutch. If you accelerate too far in advance of that point you rev up the engine, and if you wait too long you kill the engine. You'll get it with practice.If you are asking how a clutch works: A clutch disc is a steel plate with friction material attached to it on both sides of it it is sandwiched in between the flywheel and the pressure plate in the tranny bell housing. The clutch disk has a hole in the center that is splined which allows it to stay engaged and slide on the input shaft. when you depress the clutch you are pushing on the pressure plate release fingers and allowing the clutch disc to stop spinning allowing you to shift gears. When you release the clutch pedal pressure is re applied from the pressure plate to sandwich the clutch disc between the fly wheel and pressure plate again. The friction point would be the clutch disk. I hope that helps explain
