Clutches

Car maintenance is imperative if you want to drive a safe vehicle. Failing to do so, could have dangerous consequences that could impact on your life and that of your passengers.

Why is the clutch important?

When you drive a manual car, you will use the clutch every time you need to change gear. By applying pressure to the clutch pedal, you will separate the springs that keep the plates together. When this becomes difficult, you may find that the power of the engine changes and it may become almost impossible to change gears which can become quite dangerous.

How can I tell when I need clutch repairs or a clutch replacement?
