For drivers who enjoy the control and responsiveness of a manual transmission, a functioning clutch is essential. The clutch acts as the bridge between your engine and wheels and allows you to shift gears and control your vehicle's speed.
Many people presume that the clutch is actually the pedal positioned to the left of the brake in their vehicle. That is not entirely false, but there's more to it than that. It disengages the transmission from the drivetrain.

Can I keep driving with a slipping or failing clutch?
It's best not to, because a slipping clutch tends to get worse quickly and can leave you unable to shift or move at all.
What starts as minor slipping under load can turn into being stranded, and continuing to drive on it often causes more damage that makes the eventual repair bigger. If your clutch is slipping or feeling off, have it looked at by the expert
team at Bernhard Auto Works before a small problem becomes a tow.
Why is my clutch pedal soft, stiff, or sticking to the floor?
A clutch pedal that feels soft, stiff, or sticks to the floor usually points to a hydraulic issue, a worn clutch component, or a problem with the linkage.
The pedal is your clearest early warning that something in the clutch system needs attention, so a change in how it feels is worth taking seriously. Bring your vehicle to Bernhard Auto Works in Columbia and we'll figure out exactly why your pedal isn't working the way it should.
What makes a clutch wear out faster?
Habits like riding the clutch pedal, holding the car on a hill with the clutch instead of the brake, and frequent aggressive shifting all wear a clutch out faster than normal.
Heavy stop-and-go driving and towing add to the strain too. A little care in how you drive goes a long way, and the trustworthy
team at Bernhard Auto Works can check your clutch and let you know how much life it has left, so call us at (618) 281-6900 if you'd like it inspected.
