Your clutch maintains the connection between your gearbox and your engine. When you depress the clutch pedal, two metal plates come apart and separate the engine from the drive wheels, allowing you to change gear. Bringing the pedal back up re-engages the plates and reconnects the engine to the drive wheels.
Any problems with your clutch can lead to a lack of control while driving. If you notice this, you should book a clutch replacement as soon as possible. Otherwise, your car will be at an increased accident risk.
Why it’s Important to Book a Clutch Replacement for Your Ford Focus
Your clutch is an incredibly essential part of your car. It is made up of various parts that work in unison to allow your car to drive. Every car has a clutch, even automatic models – it works on a computer rather than a pedal. Without it, your Ford Focus wouldn’t be able to run. Therefore, it is incredibly important to book a clutch replacement as soon as your car need one.

How Often Should I Book a Clutch Replacement for My Ford Focus?
A clutch's life expectancy differs from car to car and the clutch on your Ford Focus may need replacing anywhere between 60,000 and 100,000 miles. Of course, this isn’t a hard rule – your driving behaviours will have an impact on your clutch’s lifespan. Being stationary in heavy traffic day to day will have a strain on your clutch. If you live in a part of the country that is rather mountainous, you’ll find your clutch will need repairing sooner.
As you begin to approach 60,000 miles, pay attention to your car – is it making any unusual noises or sounds? Have you noticed any of these warning signs?:
- You struggle to change gear
- Your car won't engage gear
- The clutch makes a grinding, squealing, shrieking or other bad noise
- You can smell burning from the clutch
- Your biting point has become higher than normal
If the answer is yes, book your Ford Focus into a local garage for a clutch replacement today.
