Clutches

The clutch is a vital component of your vehicle, facilitating smooth gear transitions and overall performance. Proper maintenance is essential to ensure its longevity and functionality. Common signs of clutch wear include:

Slipping Gears: The engine revs, but the vehicle doesn't accelerate accordingly.
Difficulty Shifting: Hard-to-engage gears or grinding noises during shifts.
Spongy or Stiff Pedal: Changes in pedal feel, such as sponginess or stiffness.
Unusual Noises: Rattling, ticking, or squeaking sounds when pressing the clutch pedal.

Tips to Prolong Clutch Life:

Avoid Riding the Clutch: Keep your foot off the clutch pedal unless shifting gears.
Smooth Gear Changes: Fully depress the clutch pedal before shifting to prevent unnecessary wear.
Utilize Handbrake on Hills: Use the handbrake to prevent rollback instead of balancing with the clutch.
Regular Maintenance: Have your clutch system inspected during routine services to detect and address issues early.

I have a 2004 SLK 350 R171 which I intended to take to France to rally in September. Scarlett Auto Service’s listened carefully to my concerns, and with attention to detail ensured that not only was it fit to take to Bordeaux, but that I won the overall rally beating an Aston Martin, Porsche, Jaguar & Ferrari over 2 days. Had no issues at all for the entire trip. Not bad for an 18 year old car. What I really like about this friendly & accomplished garage is that they fully engage, include you in the process, and nothing is seemingly too much trouble. I had, for example, a problem with the wing mirror motor assembly and Scarlett’s went to some trouble to source an affordable original second hand replacement. Something that previous garages had not attempted. The work I requested was done to a very high standard; with a wide range of expertise being shown; they invited me to inspect their work: & importantly I am always made to feel welcome. As a fussy Mercedes owner I trust them implicitly & would not take my car anywhere else.

I use Scarletts Auto Services to look after my Ford Escort RS Cosworth. Stuart and his team have always been very professional, reliable and trustworthy and I feel totally at ease leaving my car with them. I would highly recommend Scarletts.
