include:
My Clutch Slips!
Clutch slippage can be caused by a number of things. The flywheel may not be machined
correctly; an improper linkage adjustment; or the clutch
may be out of adjustment. If you have worked on your own vehicle before, most
of these terms should make sense to you. If not, your best bet is to come to the
closest Best Western Transmission for an External Diagnostic Inspection.
My Clutch Chatters!
Clutch chatter can be caused by any number of things including: The flywheel might need to be
machined, there might be oil on the clutch plate lining, or the lining could
be glazed. Worn lining, bad motor or transmission mounts or improper linkage adjustment
can also contribute to chattering. Sound complicated? Unfortunately it is.
Once again your best bet is to come to the closest Best Western Transmission
for an
External Diagnostic Inspection.
My Clutch Grabs!
Clutch grabbing can be caused by any number of things including: The
flywheel may not be machined properly, oil on the lining, a worn lining, or
a warped pressure plate. Additional causes could be the release
bearing, the cover, lever or diaphragm spring could be bent or the disc may
be worn out. Once again, your best bet is to come to the closest Best
Western Transmission for an
External Diagnostic Inspection.
My Clutch Does Not Release!
This problem can be caused by a worn pilot bearing or bushing, or a worn
release bearing. An improperly adjusted clutch or linkage or a fluid level
in the hydraulic system could also cause this. Sounds complicated;
unfortunately it is. Once again, your best bet is to come to the closest
Best Western Transmission for an
