Clutch and Brake Repair

Clutch repair service

When your car is slipping through gear changes it may be time for a clutch replacement. We can work on your car and provide clutch repair services. A clutch is integral to getting your car moving and working properly. While it’s possible to drive a manual car without the clutch, it can be difficult to start and almost impossible to change gears. Therefore, you’ll either be driving slowly or not at all.

The result is that your car will be stuck in the last gear you switched to or neutral. When you don’t have a clutch, the engine will stall when it slows down and stop. When the car has stopped you can put it in neutral and push it to a safe spot.

We can attend to your car on site, this can be your home, or workplace. In most cases a clutch repair can be carried out away from our workshop, but for larger jobs like a total clutch replacement, we’ll need the equipment in our workshop. A workshop is needed as the clutch is housed between the gearbox and engine, and in most cases the gearbox will need to be removed. However, we can arrange to have your car moved to our workshop.

It could be that you need to push the clutch pedal in further to make changes, or that no matter what you do the gears crunch when performing a gear shift. When a clutch cable goes, you’ll hear a loud thump, and then the pedal is very light to push in, this is due to the fact it’s not connected to anything.

We can fix anything with your clutch, but a full inspection may need to be completed at our workshop. Often the clutch will need to be removed from the vehicle to property assess what is wrong and complete the clutch replacement or repair.

The signs that you need a clutch replacement are a spongy feel when you push in the pedals, or the gears grinding and not changing smoothly. Other signs of a clutch that is ‘about to go’, are when you have trouble changing gears, or the clutch pedal feels like it is shaking and shuddering.

  • Gears grinding or crunching due to failure of the clutch to release properly when pressed
  • The Excessive force required to press the clutch pedal
  • The car shudders as the clutch pedal is released
  • The clutch slips which creates the sensation of the engine revving very high but the car failing to accelerate normally
  • Burning smell during gear changes
  • Unusual noises when engaging the clutch
  • Unusual pulling to one side during braking, pointing to uneven brake wear.
  • Reduced power transmission from the engine to the wheels
