Information
What is a clutch?
A clutch controls the slippage between an engine and a transmission. Since the engine spins and vehicle wheels do not, the clutch allows the wheels to be disconnected from the engine so that the driver can change gears and can also stop the vehicle without killing the engine.
Why is my clutch making a grinding noise?
A grinding noise occurs when the gears are not meshing. This means the clutch is not doing its job of disengaging the transmission from the engine. In this instance, the clutch may need adjustment. Other problems occur when friction material on the clutch disc wears out. A clutch then slips, and eventually stops transmitting power from the engine to the wheels. Other potential problems include a broken or stretched clutch cable, a leaky or defective clutch cylinder, and air in the hydraulic line.
What are my options?
The vehicle can either be taken to a local dealer or repair shop, or the owner can repair it, but it may involve pulling the engine with a hoist. There are numerous automotive websites that explain how to repair or replace a clutch. Other sites advertise repair services or service manuals.
