Manufacturers fit a clutch for a reason mate. You don't use your engine to brake as well do you? Both bad, and potentially expensive, habits.

Brake pads are much cheaper than engines.


It causes unnecessary engine wear.


And your brake lights don't come on to warn following traffic that you are slowing up or stopping...


But what would I know.

What wear does it cause?
