Components

The clutch consists of: clutch friction disc, pressure plate, release bearing (throwout bearing), clutch slave cylinder, clutch master cylinder, dual-mass flywheel (DMF), clutch cable or hydraulic line.

Petrol & diesel vehicles

Clutch systems are identical across petrol and diesel vehicles, though diesel vehicles tend to wear clutches faster due to higher torque.

Hybrid & electric vehicles

Fully electric vehicles do not have a clutch. Hybrid vehicles with a manual gearbox have a conventional clutch that may need replacement.
