What Causes a Heavy Clutch Pedal in Large Vehicles?

[OAutumn]

Here are the reasons why the clutch pedal feels particularly heavy in large vehicles: 1. Clutch disc or clutch pressure plate failure. 2. Release bearing failure. Below is a related introduction to clutch operation precautions: 1. Pay attention to posture: Use the ball of your left foot with the heel as a pivot point to press the clutch pedal. When releasing, follow the principle of "fast first, slow second, then linkage." The clutch pedal release process is divided into three stages: initially lift quickly, then slow down when you feel the clutch pressure plate gradually engaging to the semi-linked state, and finally lift the pedal slowly during the transition from semi-linkage to full engagement. 2. Coordinate left and right foot movements: When starting, press the clutch fully with your left foot, shift into first gear, and then press the brake with your right foot. Slowly release the clutch at this point. When you notice slight vehicle vibration, release the brake, and the car will gradually move forward at idle speed.
