Clutch diagnosis and replacement in DIFC
Identify the source of slipping or difficult engagement before replacing clutch parts.
What to expect
Clutch symptoms may come from the friction components, release mechanism or hydraulics. Workshop inspection establishes which parts require attention and whether related components need work, with the scope agreed before disassembly.

A few things you may want to know.
If your situation is different, describe what the car is doing and where it is parked.
Is the flywheel replaced with the clutch?
Only if inspection shows it needs it. Its condition is assessed once the gearbox is out, and you are told before extra parts are added.
Can the fault be hydraulic and not the clutch itself?
Yes. A leaking cylinder or air in the system can cause poor disengagement. This is checked before the clutch is condemned.
