So, when you're in traffic, with low revs, what does he say to do then?

What puzzles me is that if the OP has a problem with his technique, why was this not picked up on during the training and testing regime?
That is a good question. I can only assume I did as it should in the beginning. All I can remember is that, after hearing and feeling gears rattle for couple of times, I intentionally started to shift with low revs fearing I would make things worser if gears are in higher revs.
On the other hand maybe something did gone wrong. I am thinking about adjusting clutch at the bottom end anyway, it cannot be bad.
