It is important to be aware of signs that your vehicle’s clutch needs service to avoid a full replacement. Indications your clutch needs attention are a grinding noise when going into gear or the car lacking power even though the engine speed rises. As soon as you notice problems with the clutch, address them. Early issues could mean a small clutch repair or adjustment and stop premature wear on expensive components.

Replacing a clutch can be time-consuming and expensive. A full clutch replacement includes removing the driveline and transmission to reach the clutch plate, the pressure plate, the throw-out bearing, and the pilot bearing. Resurfacing the flywheel ensures the clutch engages smoothly. There are many moving parts to consider when replacing the clutch.
