What are the symptoms when the clutch has problems?

[EvangelineMarie]

When the clutch has problems, there may be phenomena such as slipping, incomplete engagement, shuddering, abnormal noises, and increased pedal height. Below are detailed descriptions of the symptoms when the clutch malfunctions: 1. Clutch slipping: When starting the car in a low gear, after releasing the clutch pedal, the car fails to move or has difficulty starting; 2. Incomplete clutch disengagement: Even when the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the power between the clutch driving and driven discs cannot be completely cut off, leading to difficulty in shifting gears, gear grinding, inability to stop, or clutch overheating; 3. Clutch shuddering: The entire vehicle shakes when starting, especially during idle operation or when gradually releasing the clutch pedal in a low gear, resulting in continuous jerking; 4. Abnormal clutch noise: When the clutch pedal is slightly depressed, as the inner end of the release bearing contacts the release lever, the clutch emits a continuous "click, click, click" sound; 5. Increased clutch pedal height: When starting the vehicle, the clutch pedal needs to be lifted twice as high as usual, which is caused by the thinning of the clutch disc.
