When starting a manual transmission car, it is necessary to press the clutch pedal to disconnect the engine from the transmission, thereby reducing the load on the starter. While it is possible to start the car without pressing the clutch, doing so increases the burden on the starter, so it is recommended to press the clutch when starting. Introduction to the Clutch: The clutch is a crucial component in a car's drivetrain, located between the engine and the transmission. It can disconnect or connect the engine to the transmission. The clutch pressure plate is fixed to the engine flywheel, with the clutch disc positioned between the pressure plate and the flywheel. The clutch disc has a spline in the center that secures a driveshaft, which serves as the transmission's power input shaft. Important Notes: When the driver presses the clutch pedal, the clutch disengages, and releasing the pedal engages the clutch. The clutch disc is a wear-and-tear part that requires periodic replacement. As the car accumulates mileage, the clutch disc gradually wears out. Once the clutch disc wears beyond a certain point, it must be replaced. Replacing the clutch disc involves disconnecting the engine from the transmission and removing the transmission from the vehicle, as this is the only way to access and replace the clutch disc.
