Your car has to deal with long drives, city traffic, and sometimes bumpy terrain, which can significantly impact its auto parts if not properly maintained.

Essential Clutch Service Requirements
Clutch Fluid Inspection and Replacement
Like many other components, the clutch system relies on hydraulic pressure for optimal functioning. That is why all modern cars are equipped with hydraulic clutch fluid, designed solely to generate the pressure needed for the clutch to function smoothly and enable smooth gear shifting. Get in touch with us at EuroPro, located near Kings Grant, Old Town, Goose Creek, and Summerville, SC, to have your clutch fluid inspected or, if needed, flushed out and replaced by our expert, certified technicians.
Clutch Disc Examination
The clutch disc is a friction component that connects the engine to the transmission via a flywheel. When you press the clutch pedal, the disc disengages from the flywheel, allowing you to change gears without damaging the engine or transmission. The clutch disc needs regular examination to rule out any issues that may be in the early stages. Drive into any of our garages located near you in West Ashley, Silver Lake, and Garden City Beach, SC, for a regular inspection of your clutch’s disc.
Pressure Plate Inspection and Replacement
The pressure plate works with the clutch disc to maintain pressure on the disc, ensuring a strong connection when the clutch is engaged. If the pressure plate fails or is damaged, it could lead to problems such as clutch slippage or difficulty in engaging gears. This could be dangerous and should be addressed promptly at any of our garages in Leland, Surfside Beach, and Wrightsville Beach, SC.
Clutch Pedal and Hydraulic Line Checking
The clutch pedal works as an interface between the driver and the clutch system. At times, drivers report feeling softness or stiffness, or sinking to the floor. All these are related to the hydraulic line in the clutch system, where air can affect its functionality. Reach out to EuroPro, located near you in Mt. Pleasant, Hanahan, and North Charleston, SC, to have your hydraulic line inspected and cleared of leaks.
Flywheel Assessment
The clutch disc in your vehicle is located between the pressure plate and the flywheel, where the flywheel serves as the friction surface for the clutch disc. Now, whenever you press the clutch pedal, it creates friction between the clutch disc and flywheel, and this is where the flywheel starts to wear down from continuous friction. You might also see cracks, scoring, and hot spots. Besides that, driving continuously without replacing the damaged flywheel can take a toll on the entire clutch assembly. You must get it inspected and replaced by professional certified mechanics like us at EuroPro, located near you in James Island and Ladson, SC.
