Depending on the context of you conversation: -"Lo puse en segunda" or -"Lo baje a segunda" or -"Cambie a segunda"- check with a spanish speaker the pronunciation of the verb, or you'll sound funny... Your clutch is your embrague (ehm-brah-geh, phonetic "g" of "girl"). Embrague is also old slang for "steady girlfriend" as in: -"Me fui al cine con my embrague, estuvimos chapando todo el rato."- Embrague=Hembra, spanish for female. Chapando=Making out... hope it helps.

I think I can help you here with a phrase. I worked in a Parking Lot back in 2007. PULL OVER THE CAR A LITTLE BIT = RETROCEDE UN POCO EL CARRO
