What is a clutch pressure plate and how does it work?

A clutch pressure plate is a component of a manual transmission system. In order to switch gears in a manual transmission, it is necessary to momentarily disengage the transmission from the engine. That is the job of the clutch. The clutch has two main components - the clutch disc and the pressure plate.
The clutch pressure plate is a large circular steel plate that applies spring loaded pressure to the clutch disc, holding it against the flywheel during normal driving operation. When you press on the clutch pedal, the spring tension inside the pressure plate is overcome and the clutch disc spins freely. This disengages the transmission from the engine so that you can select a different gear.

COMMON SYMPTOMS

How do I know if my vehicle needs a new clutch pressure plate?

When the clutch is serviced, it is common for a technician to replace all related components, including the disc, pilot bearing, release bearing, and pressure plate. When these components wear out or fail, you might notice one or more of the following symptoms:

Removal of the clutch slave cylinder and/or clutch linkage
Unbolting and removing the transmission from the vehicle
Disassembly of the clutch assembly to remove and replace the pressure plate
Reinstallation of the transmission, linkage, slave cylinder, and other components In the case of a hydraulic clutch, the hydraulic fluid must be replaced and the system may need to be bled of any air in the fluid. Special alignment tools and procedures may also be required to properly reassemble and install the clutch assembly into the transmission.
