The clutch connects the engine and transmission – it ensures smooth starts and precise gear changes. Over time, it wears out, and you’ll feel that clearly while driving. Replacing it in time ensures your MINI shifts reliably and prevents transmission damage.
Why replace the clutch?
- Safe shifting: A worn clutch no longer disengages completely – gears become difficult or jerky to engage. This affects comfort and can even be dangerous.
- Protection against further damage: If the clutch no longer engages properly, the gearbox experiences higher stress. Timely replacement prevents costly repairs.
- Full power transfer: An intact clutch transmits the engine’s power without loss – ensuring better acceleration and smoother driving.
When is it time to replace the clutch?
- Slipping: The engine revs up but the car barely accelerates – a clear sign of worn friction plates.
- Shifting problems: If gears grind or are difficult to engage, the clutch is no longer fully disengaging.
- Burning smell: A burnt odor after shifting indicates overheating or material wear – the clutch should be checked immediately.
We check the condition of your MINI’s clutch precisely and replace it professionally if necessary – including inspection of the flywheel, release bearing, and master/slave cylinders. This keeps your MINI reliable and shifting like new.
