How to Know You Need Clutch Repair or Replacement
Your clutch is a crucial part of your manual transmission; if it’s faulty or worn, it can cause serious (and expensive) damage. That’s why it’s important to visit us as soon as you start to notice it’s having issues. Many times, getting a simple repair early on can help prevent the need for total transmission replacement! Maintenance is also essential because it allows us to address minor issues before they can cause a breakdown or other problems.
Here are some common signs it’s time to schedule a clutch repair or replacement at our Kent WA shop:
- Difficulty shifting gears
- A squeaking or grinding noise when you push down the clutch pedal
- The clutch pedal vibrates or feels spongey, sticky, or loose
- Poor acceleration
- A burning smell
- Grinding while shifting gears
- The clutch pedal is hard to engage
- The clutch pedal stays stuck to the floor
- Clutch slippage
Most of these signs are easy to notice–but you may not know the signs of a slipping clutch. Once the friction material of the clutch is worn, the clutch won’t engage properly. You may notice that when you release the clutch pedal and try to accelerate, your engine will rev higher, but your car will move slowly.
When you visit us, the first thing we’ll do is assess your vehicle to determine whether the clutch can be repaired or if we’ll need to do a clutch replacement. Do you have a performance vehicle that you’d like to upgrade? We also offer performance clutch kits and installation!
If you’ve noticed problems with your clutch, like grinding, sticking, or clutch slipping symptoms, don’t wait! Schedule an appointment with us today.
