6 Common Clutch Problems

A white check mark in a black circle on a white background.

Clutch Slipping: This occurs when the clutch fails to fully engage, causing the engine to rev higher without a corresponding increase in vehicle speed. Slipping can result from worn clutch discs, a faulty pressure plate, or low hydraulic fluid levels.

Difficulty Shifting Gears: If you experience resistance or grinding when changing gears, it may indicate issues with the clutch release mechanism, such as a worn throw-out bearing or problems with the clutch master or slave cylinder.

FAQS

  • What are the signs that my clutch needs repair or replacement?

    Common signs that your clutch may need attention include difficulty shifting gears, clutch slippage (where the engine revs but the vehicle doesn’t accelerate as expected), unusual noises such as grinding or squealing, and a burning smell during operation. If you experience any of these issues, it’s important to have your clutch inspected by a professional.

  • How long does a clutch replacement typically take?

    The time required for a clutch replacement can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle and the complexity of the repair. Generally, a clutch replacement can be completed within a few hours, often the same day, but it’s best to check with us for a more accurate estimate based on your vehicle.

  • Are OE (Original Equipment) parts necessary for a clutch replacement?

    Yes, using OE (Original Equipment) parts for a clutch replacement is highly recommended. OE parts are specifically designed to meet the manufacturer’s specifications, ensuring optimal performance and longevity. This can help avoid future issues and maintain the integrity of your vehicle’s clutch system.

  • How can I prevent clutch problems?

    To prevent clutch problems, avoid riding the clutch (keeping your foot on the pedal while driving), and practise smooth, deliberate gear shifts. Regular vehicle maintenance and timely inspections can also help identify potential issues before they become serious problems.

  • What warranty do you offer on clutch repairs and replacements?

    We offer a no-quibble 1-Year, 12,000-mile Warranty on all clutch repairs and replacements. This warranty covers both parts and labour, giving you peace of mind and ensuring that any issues arising from our service are addressed promptly and effectively.
