Clutch Replacement Service
Toyota Clutch Replacement Service
A dry friction clutch is used to change gears on manual transmissions in Toyota vehicles and to keep the wheels spinning in a proper rotation while driving on roads in St. Joseph, Missouri. One of the main components of the clutch is the flywheel which is connected to the engine block. On the face of the flywheel is a pressure plate covered in a clay material to build friction up in the system. The friction keeps the parts working together to keep your Toyota in gear and running well. Springs are used to keep the flywheel pressed against the clutch plate when you are driving.

The Clutch
If the friction between the flywheel and clutch plate is interrupted for any reason, you may start to experience situations like hearing the car's motor racing while the vehicle is going slow, the vehicle won't go into reverse, there is growling or grinding sounds when you press in the clutch pedal, the pedal can feel loose and spongy when pressing it down, or you can feel and hear the transmission slip. Whether you are starting to have clutch problems or just want to have an inspection done to ward of problems, you should come to Rolling Hills Toyota to let our Toyota certified technicians, who are factory-trained to know your vehicle inside and out, check out your clutch and its components. A clutch includes the following parts:
- Flywheel
- Pressure Plate
- Pressure Springs
- Releasing Levers
- Clutch Plate
- Clutch Shaft
- Foot Pedal
- Clutch Master Cylinder
- Fluid Reservoir
Any number of things can go wrong with these parts and it is important you determine what the problems are right away before it grows worse. Continuing to drive with a faulty clutch can damage the flywheel and increase the amount of heat buildup in the system. The excessive heat can damage the main bearings, transmission, and other parts. If this happens, you will likely cause enough damage to stop the clutch from working until you make major repairs.
