What causes the clutch to become hard to press when a Hyundai car gets hot?
1 Answers
This may be caused by issues with the clutch pressure plate or release bearing. It is recommended to have the pressure plate and release bearing checked. Below are methods to properly operate the clutch in different situations: 1. When starting the car: First press the clutch pedal, then find the semi-engaged state while slightly pressing the accelerator with your right foot to increase the engine speed. Slowly release the clutch and pause slightly when reaching the semi-engaged state. 2. When downshifting: First reduce the car's speed until it reaches the required lower gear, then press the clutch and control it using the principle of 'one fast, two slow, three coordinated movements'. 3. When upshifting: First increase the speed to the corresponding RPM, then quickly press the clutch pedal and slowly release it. You can press the accelerator slightly while pressing the clutch.
