Clutch Issues that Need Repair in Las Vegas
Clutch Slipping
Due to constant wearing and tearing the clutch disk loses its grip and cannot maintain proper friction with the flywheel, causing clutch slipping. As a result, you observe clutch malfunctions such as revving the engine without increasing speed, poor acceleration on an uphill road, and burning smells from the engine bay. Replacement of the clutch disk in our Paladin Automotive facility will resolve the clutch slipping issue in your vehicle in the area of Las Vegas.
Rough Shifting
Rigid shifting into the first or reverse gears, grinding of gears and rough shifting, and stiff clutch pedal are the indications of rough shifting. It happens due to worn clutch linkage, the air in the hydraulic system, or failing ‘master or slave’ cylinder. Clutch service such as refilling of hydraulic system and replacement of cylinders should be done at Paladin Automotive workshop at 5240, Spring Mountain Rd to resolve the issue in your vehicle in Las Vegas.
Soft, Spongy, or Sticking Clutch Pad
The clutch feels spongy and soft to press, upon pressing it takes time to come up, and clutch disengagement is very slow; these are the signs of sticking clutch pad. This happens when the hydraulic fluid level is very low or very contaminated, or there is trapped air in the hydraulic lines. Repairing the leaks and topping off the fluid level at our Las Vegas workshop will resolve this matter in no time.
Lag in Acceleration or Jerking
Jerking or hesitation when the clutch is used and delayed response when accelerating after a stop are the signs of lag in acceleration. This is caused due to worn clutch components, wrapped flywheels, and oil contamination on the clutch surface. Repair and service such as replacement of worn components and resurfacing of the flywheel should be done in our Las Vegas facility to fix this issue.
