FAQs
What is included in the box?
The kit contains one pressure plate cover, one clutch disc, one clutch release bearing, and synthetic grease.
How do I confirm this fits my car?
Use the MPN ADL143003 to search against your specific vehicle make, model, and engine year in an automotive parts catalog.
Do I need to replace my flywheel at the same time?
It is highly recommended to inspect the flywheel for wear and either resurface it or replace it to ensure the new clutch disc has a flat surface to grip.
Is this a performance clutch?
No, this is an original equipment equivalent designed for standard road use, not for racing or high-torque modifications.
How often should a clutch be replaced?
Lifespan varies based on driving style, but clutches are typically replaced when slippage occurs or the release bearing becomes noisy.
Troubleshooting
Clutch pedal feels too heavy or sticks
Check the clutch release bearing movement and ensure proper lubrication was applied during installation.
Slipping during acceleration
Verify that no oil or grease contaminated the clutch disc surface during the installation process.
Difficulty shifting into gear
Ensure the clutch disc was properly centered with an alignment tool and that the hydraulic system is fully bled.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before beginning installation, cross-reference the `ADL143003` part number with your vehicle's specific chassis number or engine code. The installation process involves dropping the transmission, removing the existing flywheel (which should be inspected for scoring or heat spots), and torquing the new pressure plate to factory specifications. Always use a clutch alignment tool to ensure the disc is centered before tightening the cover bolts. Following installation, it is recommended to perform a 'break-in' period by avoiding aggressive gear changes or heavy towing for the first 300-500 miles to allow the clutch surfaces to seat properly.
