Compare Audi A4 Clutch Replacement Deals Near You

Your clutch works by transferring power from your engine over to your drive wheels, enabling your car to move forwards when you want it to. Alternatively, the clutch can stop this power from reaching the drive wheels, so that you can change gears. It does all of this without cutting off the engine. Thanks to the clutch, your movements should be smooth.

As part of a clutch replacement, a skilled mechanic will first examine your clutch and gearbox, to make sure that these parts are the cause of the issues you have been experiencing.

After determining that the clutch is the culprit, the mechanic will next unhook the battery and disconnect the clutch and/or hydraulic slave cylinder, so that they can stabilise the engine. Once they have unbolted the pressure plate, they can look for any leaks or damages, and clean or replace these parts accordingly.

Lastly, the mechanic will rebuild the front of your vehicle, and test your clutch to ensure it is functioning correctly.

If you avoid holding your clutch at biting point unnecessarily, then a well-treated clutch can last you 60,000 miles on average – sometimes it can even last longer.
