Symptoms of a damaged car pressure plate: The clutch disc experiences slipping. Below is an introduction to the car clutch: 1. Composition: The car clutch consists of the pressure plate assembly, clutch disc, release bearing and seat, return spring, fork, clutch master cylinder, and clutch slave cylinder. 2. Function of the pressure plate: The pressure plate is connected to the flywheel via screws, with the clutch disc positioned between the pressure plate and the flywheel. When the car needs engine power to drive, the pressure plate tightly presses the clutch disc to transmit engine power to the drivetrain, enabling the car to move. When the clutch pedal is depressed, the release bearing presses against the pressure plate's fingers, compressing the spring, creating a gap between the clutch disc and the pressure plate surface, achieving separation.
