Depress the clutch with the sole of your foot. Using the sole provides a firm, powerful, and larger contact area, making it easier to control when positioned towards the front half. The functions of the clutch are: 1. During vehicle operation, to prevent the meshing force-transmitting gears in the transmission from being unloaded due to load; 2. To protect the transmission system from overload and reduce torsional vibration impact; 3. To ensure smooth vehicle starting. Maintenance methods for clutch use include: 1. When installed on separate shafts, the coaxiality between the driving part and the driven part shaft should not exceed 0.1mm; 2. When installed coaxially, axial fixation is required to prevent axial movement between the driving and driven parts; 3. Clean thoroughly before installation to remove anti-rust grease and debris; 4. For wet electromagnetic clutches, lubricating oil must be added between the friction plates during operation.

Why Does the Brake Make Noise When Starting?

Starting brake noise is a normal phenomenon for automatic transmission vehicles. The slower and lighter you release the brake, the more noticeable this sound becomes. This is because in an automatic transmission car, as long as the gear lever is not in the parking gear P or neutral N, the engine will have power output, including during idle. If you want to stop the car, you need to press the brake pedal. Additionally, it could also be due to issues with the brake pads. When temperatures are low, the rubber components in the suspension system become harder, and the surfaces of the brake discs and brake pads may also change, leading to unusual noises when starting. These noises usually disappear once the car warms up. Both brake discs and brake pads are high-wear items, and when they are excessively worn, they naturally produce abnormal noises. Therefore, it is essential to inspect and replace them regularly.

How to resolve the red key light issue in Subaru?
