Compare VW Golf Clutch Replacement Deals Near You

When it comes to your car’s movements, your clutch is in control. Each time you depress the clutch pedal, you split up the two metal plates which then separate the engine from the drive wheels. This allows you to change gear. If you lessen this pressure on the pedal you will reconnect the engine to the drive wheels, which should help your car to move forwards when you want it to.

Without a functioning clutch, controlling your car will be a struggle. That’s why it is so important that you book your VW Golf in for a clutch replacement at the earliest sign of clutch failure. Otherwise, you could be more prone to accidents - or potential breakdowns - on the road. Not to mention the cost to repair additional parts that a faulty clutch could impact.

FAQs

How Does the Clutch Work?

Your clutch is a particularly clever piece of machinery. By connecting your car’s two rotating shafts, your clutch is able to transfer power from your engine over to your drive wheels, thus enabling your car to move forwards. It also has the power to stop this from happening by disconnecting these shafts, allowing you to stop, slow down, or change gears – all without cutting the engine.

When your clutch is working properly, driving should be a breeze. A faulty clutch, by contrast, makes for a challenging driving experience – one that could put you and your loved ones in danger. Prevent unnecessary costs and accidents by getting your clutch replaced by a professional mechanic today. Get your VW Golf running to its full potential.

What Happens During a Clutch Replacement?

During a clutch replacement, an expert mechanic will take a look at your clutch and your gearbox, so that they can be certain that the clutch is the cause of the problem. Once they are convinced this is the case, they can unhook the battery and disconnect the clutch and/or hydraulic slave cylinder, so that they can stabilise the engine. They will then unbolt the pressure plate and look for any leaks or damages. After cleaning and repairing the parts that require this, they can finally rebuild the front of your car and test the clutch to make sure it is working properly.

How Often Should I Book a Clutch Replacement?

When a clutch is treated properly, it should last around 60,000 miles on average, or longer with expert care. Avoid holding the clutch at the biting point to extend the lifespan of your clutch.

You should book your VW Golf in for a clutch replacement at the recommended interval, or if you notice any of the following:

• Difficulty when changing gears
• Strange noises coming from the clutch, like grinding or shrieking
• A burning smell coming from the clutch
• Your biting point is higher than normal

How Long Does a Clutch Change Take?

A clutch replacement can take up to 10 hours, but generally speaking, it should last between 3 and 5 hours.
