Troubleshooting
Clutch pedal feels spongy or goes to the floor.
This could indicate air in the hydraulic system or a leak. Check the clutch fluid level and inspect lines for leaks. Bleeding the hydraulic system may be necessary.
Difficulty shifting gears after installation.
Ensure the clutch disc is correctly oriented and not installed backwards. Verify the clutch release bearing is properly seated and the release mechanism is functioning correctly. Check for proper alignment of transmission and engine.
Clutch slips under acceleration.
This typically means the clutch friction material is worn or contaminated. Ensure the correct clutch plate was installed and that no oil or grease has contaminated the friction surfaces during installation.
Noise when clutch pedal is pressed.
Could be a worn or improperly lubricated clutch release bearing. Ensure the new bearing was installed with the provided synthetic grease and is seated correctly.
