Preventions Of Clutch Issues
Unfortunately, it's impossible to completely eliminate the possibility of this mechanism failing due to its limited factory service life. However, it's essential to recognize that wear is not the sole cause of clutch failure.
Certain driver habits can have a detrimental impact on the mechanism, significantly reducing its lifespan:
Continuous operation of the car with the clutch pedal pressed;
Starting the vehicle at high speeds;
Frequently pressing the clutch pedal in stressful situations.
By minimizing these actions, you can maintain the clutch in good condition, extending the time before repair or replacement of the mechanism becomes necessary.

Unlike other friction components of the car, the clutch is located between the engine and transmission – this almost completely eliminates the possibility of physical inspection and verification of the integrity of the equipment without the intervention of a professional.
Thus, most owners will find out about the breakdown of the clutch after the symptoms of a serious malfunction of this device appear:
Every driver knows that a certain amount of such a smell can be felt when accelerating in first gear – this is the norm for driving in heavy traffic. However, an increase in the burning smell and its prolonged retention during driving may indicate a breakdown of the driven disk.
If you have started to notice some oddities in the gearbox operation: the handle slipping out of the selected gear or the car switching to neutral independently – this may indicate severe wear of the plate and the urgent need to replace it. Another cause of this problem may be an oil leak that contributes to excessive lubrication of the clutch plate.
Often the cause of such a problem is an incomplete disconnection of the engine from the transmission. As a result, the clutch is not fully pressed out, limiting driving.
A fairly rare symptom of a malfunction, which often occurs in DSG gearboxes – it occurs when a bearing is damaged, around which two parts of the flywheel rotate. Unfortunately, it is impossible to repair the clutch in this case.
Most often, the cause of such trouble is a breakdown of the spring-loaded diaphragm in the pressure plate. Fragments of this part fill the space between the driven plate and the outer shell of the pressure plate, limiting the movement of the pedal.
Please note that the degree of manifestation of the symptoms listed above may vary depending on the model, manufacturer and generation of your car, as well as the brand of the clutch installed.
The main part of the clutch is located between the engine and the transmission – therefore, first of all the repairman disassembles some of the main devices, engine supports, cables, gearboxes and mechanisms of the car to carry out repairs
After gaining access to the clutch, the specialist unscrews the bolts around the pressure plate, removes the plate itself and the clutch plate.
Initially, the vacated space is checked for leaks and structural damage – if everything is alright, the repairman begins installing a new seal. The flywheel, clutch plate, pressure plate and bearing are fixed in the desired position after that.
A gearbox, accompanying supports and cables are installed in place to restore the functionality of the vehicle. The clutch is adjusted, the free pedal stroke is adjusted.
We offer clutch repair of any complexity.
This mechanism can work properly from 50,000 to 100,000 miles, after which the parts will gradually begin to wear out. Most likely, symptoms of clutch failure will soon begin to appear – in this case, be prepared for its urgent replacement.
This process is quite painstaking, it can take from 4 to 8 hours depending on the car model. At CarCityCare, we always strive to complete repairs as quickly as possible so that you do not have to experience significant inconvenience.
The cost of replacing the clutch can vary greatly depending on the make and model of the car – you can find out the exact price by contacting our CarCityCare service. Round-the-clock support operators will carefully study your case in an online format, calculate and send the cost of repairs to your WhatsApp.
Replacing the clutch on any car requires serious disassembly of the main spare parts and structural components of the car. Only by contacting a specialist, you can be sure that the clutch will work properly and your car will be assembled in accordance with all safety standards.
