What are the symptoms of a bad clutch plate?
1 Answers
The symptoms of a bad clutch plate include: 1. Clutch slipping: When starting the car in low gear, after releasing the clutch pedal, the car cannot start or has difficulty starting. During acceleration, the engine speed does not increase, and the car lacks power. In severe cases, it may cause a burning smell or smoke; 2. Incomplete clutch disengagement: When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the power between the clutch's driving and driven plates cannot be completely cut off, leading to difficulty in shifting gears, gear grinding, and clutch overheating; 3. Clutch shudder: The entire vehicle shakes when starting. At idle speed or when gradually releasing the clutch pedal to start in low gear, the car experiences continuous jerking; 4. Abnormal clutch noise: When the clutch pedal is depressed, the inner end face of the release bearing comes into contact with the release lever, causing a continuous noise. Noise may also occur when engaging at startup or disengaging while driving, accompanied by shaking.
