What are the symptoms of a burnt car clutch plate?
1 Answers
The symptoms of a burnt car clutch plate are: 1. Reduced power: The engine's power output is transmitted to the gearbox through the clutch. When the clutch is burnt, the clutch plate will slip, naturally reducing power; 2. Metallic friction sound: The friction surface of the clutch plate is fixed with rivets. Burning the clutch will wear out the friction surface, causing the rivets to come into contact with the flywheel, resulting in a metallic friction sound when engaging or disengaging the clutch; 3. Changed clutch pedal travel: Burning the clutch thins or eliminates the friction surface, altering the clutch pedal's travel; 4. Gearshift jerking: The clutch plate contacts the flywheel. When the clutch is burnt and the rivets are exposed, there will be a strong jerking sensation during gear shifts.
