What Causes Abnormal Noise When Depressing the Car Clutch?
1 Answers
Possible causes of clutch abnormal noise are as follows: 1. Worn clutch disc leading to noise from the clutch release bearing, which produces a relatively harsh sound. 2. Broken clutch pressure plate springs or loose release bearing, where abnormal noise from the clutch area can be clearly heard when depressing the clutch pedal, becoming more noticeable upon releasing the pedal. 3. Fractured clutch steel plate. 4. Broken or excessively worn clutch release levers, or broken adjustment bolts for the release levers. If the clutch malfunctions, repairs are necessary. The primary function of the clutch is to regulate the ratio between vehicle speed and traction force. Clutch issues may result in failure to engage gears, gear disengagement, or gear jumping, making driving extremely hazardous.
