DB Clutch problems can start gradually, but once significant wear develops they can quickly make a vehicle unpleasant, or eventually impossible, to drive. This guide brings together the key things Stoke-on-Trent drivers should know.
Recognising the warning signs
Common symptoms include engine revs rising without matching acceleration, difficulty changing gear, a burning smell, clutch judder, unusual noises and changes in pedal feel.
Diagnosis before replacement
Not every clutch-related symptom automatically means the entire clutch needs replacing. Problems can involve the clutch plate, pressure plate, release bearing, cable, hydraulics or the flywheel, so diagnosis comes first.
What a clutch replacement involves
Where a complete clutch replacement is required, this can include the clutch disc, pressure plate and release bearing, with the flywheel inspected at the same time since the transmission is already removed.
