What Causes Severe Shaking in First Gear Semi-Clutch Engagement?
1 Answers
Severe shaking during first gear semi-clutch engagement is caused by issues with the clutch pressure plate. The clutch pressure plate is a crucial component of the clutch system, playing a vital role in vehicle driving safety. The pressure plate contains friction linings, similar to brake pads on wheels, which are made of highly durable materials like asbestos and copper wire. These friction linings have a specified minimum thickness requirement. After prolonged mileage, they need replacement. To minimize clutch disc wear, avoid partially depressing the clutch pedal, as this keeps the clutch disc in a semi-engaged state where the flywheel and pressure plate remain in frictional contact.
