Frequently Asked Questions

Ask a Question

  • How do I know if my clutch needs replacing?

    Common signs that your clutch needs replacing include difficulty shifting gears, a burning smell while driving, or the clutch pedal feeling spongy, sticking, or engaging too high or too low. You might also notice the engine revs increase without a corresponding rise in speed—this is known as clutch slipping. Strange noises when pressing the clutch, such as grinding or rattling, can also point to internal wear or failure. If left unchecked, a worn clutch can damage other transmission components, so early inspection is recommended when any of these symptoms appear.

  • How long does a clutch typically last?

    Clutch lifespan varies widely depending on driving habits, vehicle type, and usage. On average, a clutch can last between 80,000 to 120,000 kilometres. However, aggressive driving, towing heavy loads, or frequent stop-start city driving can reduce this lifespan significantly. Riding the clutch, skipping gears, or resting your foot on the pedal can also accelerate wear. Regular servicing and careful driving can help maximise the life of your clutch system. Once wear signs appear, it’s best to replace it before further damage occurs.

  • What is involved in a clutch replacement?

    Clutch replacement is a labour-intensive process that involves removing the transmission to access the clutch components. The mechanic will typically replace the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. In many cases, the flywheel will also be machined or replaced if it shows signs of wear or heat damage. Once the new parts are installed, the system is realigned and tested to ensure smooth engagement. A professional clutch replacement restores proper gear shifting and prevents strain on the transmission.
