Clutch Kit Installation in Reno
Clutch replacement is often the most cost-effective way to solve issues with a manual transmission. Excessive damage to the mechanical components of your clutch kit will often require a replacement kit instead of repairs. Although in some cases specific pieces like a clutch slave cylinder or a clutch plate can be swapped out, it is often safer and cheaper to fully replace the clutch kit all at once. If your manual truck or car is struggling to change gears, slipping out of gears, or the clutch is getting stuck, you should bring your car in for a full inspection.
Clutch Slave Cylinder Repair/Replacement
One of the key components of a clutch is the clutch slave cylinder. This component disengages the clutch by using hydraulics to extend a rod that pushes on the throw-out bearing arm which in turn pushes on the clutch plate. Signs that you need a new clutch slave cylinder include leaking from the clutch onto the engine bay, contaminated brake fluid, and abnormal clutch pedal feel. If you notice any of these signs, you may need some repairs.
