Clutch
There are many working and moving parts that make up your car. When something isn’t working properly, your car alerts you via the check engine light or with an array of other panel lights. While oftentimes the problem is minor, like car clutch issues, it could be something major resulting in costly repairs and unnecessary headaches. If the light remains on, it’s time to stop into Bachman’s Auto Repair!
From the moment you turn your car on, the engine is constantly spinning and generating power. While the engine is engaged and working, your wheels are not always turning. The clutch is a mechanical device in a manual transmission car that takes that generated power and transfers it from the engine to the wheels. The clutch connects two or more rotating shafts and when engaged, allows a manual transmission car to change speed and come to a complete stop.
While a clutch can last anywhere from 50,000 miles to 100,000 miles, the performance of your clutch can be greatly reduced by several different factors like city driving, pulling heavy loads and even riding the clutch. If any of these instances sound like typical driving situations for you, it may be time to come in for a clutch repair.
The need for clutch repair and replacement comes in many different forms—from odd sounds, and jerking motions, to performance problems like a slipping clutch.
If you suspect any of these issues with your clutch, the expert technicians at Bachman’s Auto can provide your car with a clutch replacement and have you shifting gears smoothly in no time.
