What are the reasons for incomplete clutch disengagement?
1 Answers
Clutch disengagement is incomplete due to: 1. Excessive free travel of the clutch pedal and insufficient working travel, resulting in insufficient rearward movement of the pressure plate and failure to completely release the clamping force on the driven plate, leaving the clutch in a semi-engaged state; 2. Bent or deformed release levers; 3. Loose support brackets; 4. Worn-through pivot pin holes causing pins to fall out, leading to uneven contact surfaces between release levers and the release bearing. The functions of the clutch are: 1. Gradually increasing the driving force to allow smooth vehicle starting; 2. Temporarily separating the engine from the transmission for gear shifting; 3. Preventing overload of the transmission system; 4. Reducing torsional vibration impacts from the engine and extending the service life of transmission gears.
