We combine high-quality parts with skilled workmanship to get your car’s transmission running smoothly and reliably again, all at a competitive price.

Do I Need a Clutch Replacement? Common Warning Signs

A clutch wears down over time with normal use. If you notice any of the following symptoms, it’s crucial to get your vehicle inspected by a professional as soon as possible to avoid further damage.

• Clutch Slipping: The engine revs increase, but your car’s speed doesn’t match. This is a common sign the clutch plate is worn out.
• Difficulty Changing Gears: You experience resistance, grinding, or crunching sounds when shifting into any gear, especially reverse.
• Spongy or Sticking Pedal: The clutch pedal feels soft, spongy, or doesn’t return to its normal position after being pressed.
• Vibrating Clutch Pedal: You feel a juddering or vibration through the pedal when you press or release it.
• A Burning Smell: A sharp, acrid smell, similar to burning rubber, can indicate a slipping and overheating clutch.
• Loud Noises: Any screeching or rumbling sound when you press the clutch pedal points to a worn-out release bearing.

If any of these sound familiar, book a free clutch check at our Gedling garage today.
