What To Do If The Clutch Slips

Aug 09, 2021

The vehicle cannot start or it is difficult to start, the acceleration cannot be added up, and it emits a burnt odor when it is severe, which is the clutch slipping.

The reasons for clutch slip are as follows:

1. The clutch free stroke is too small, the release bearing is pressed on the inner end of the release lever, the pressure plate is in a semi-detached state, and it slips when transmitting power.

2. Improper operation by the driver. Uphill shifting is not timely, when the engine is about to shut down, switch to the low gear; to save fuel and shut down and coast, when you start the engine again, put the high gear first, and then use the method of loosening the clutch pedal to force The engine starts; the slip wear of the clutch friction plate is aggravated.

3. The clutch pressure plate spring is broken, which greatly reduces the ability to transmit engine torque, resulting in slipping.

4. The clutch friction plate becomes thinner after wear, the surface hardens, and the rivets are exposed or stained with oil are also the reasons for the clutch slippage.

5. Improper adjustment of the clutch release lever and loosening of the coupling bolts of the clutch and flywheel will also cause the clutch to slip.
