A clutch wears out mainly because of how the car is driven. A few simple habits can double its working life.
In this article, our workshop team explains step by step what to watch out for, so you can make the right decisions for your car and avoid unnecessary costs down the line. The recommendations below are based on our team's day-to-day experience in the shop.
What to keep in mind
- Never rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving
- Don't hold the car on a hill with the clutch — use the handbrake
- Change gear fully, without needless slipping
- A burning smell and revs that climb without acceleration both point to wear
- When replacing it, always fit the complete kit, release bearing included
