Is Your Clutch Failing? Common Warning Signs
The clutch is a hard-working component that naturally wears out over time. Recognizing the signs early can save you from a breakdown and more costly damage. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s time to book a clutch check.
- Spongy or Sticky Pedal: The pedal feels soft, doesn’t return properly, or sticks to the floor.
- Vibrations: You feel a juddering or vibration through the pedal when you press it.
- Difficulty Changing Gear: It’s hard to get the car into gear, especially first or reverse, often with a grinding noise.
- Clutch Slipping: The engine revs go up, but the car doesn’t accelerate as it should. This is a classic sign of a worn clutch plate.
