Think of it like a cheese sandwich . . The cheese being the friction plate, the bread either side being the flywheel and pressure plate. I think Britpart actually use cheese to make their clutches. . . Another good video, keep them coming ☺
Britannica i need your help, I cant shift up to any gear in my manual gear when high up in RPMS, the clutch flywheel, pressure plate, Throwoutbearring, gearbox oil, engine mount are new and replaced 1 month and 3000km ago. I drove 3000km fine with the new set and never had issues until someone else launched my car from a standstill. When he wanted to shift to 2nd during the hard laucn the tranny blocked. Now you think the tranny is broken and that is wat I though so i replaced the tranny but the problem still exists. I checked the TOB with a micro camera and it does move instantly when i press the clutch pedal lightly, already bled the TOB and even replaced the shifting mechanism. Im clueless what is happening and hope you have any ideas
I have a question. What should be the force to the diaphragm spring to disengage clutch? I mean the immediate force from the bearing pushing the fingers'-spring. I have a disassembled VW 1.0 ltr motor clutch, 190mm diam. from Lupo. I have measured this disengaging force with scale pushing to the center of the preasuure plate with a lever. and it came 100 kg to disengage (1000 N newtons) it is huge force! Maintaining disengaed took 80 kg ad releasing begins at 60 kg I had the problems with the diseengaging, due to the too hard clutch pedal. And it "bumped" harshly Thank you for your films.
Only a Yorkshireman would rebuild his own pressure plate. Lol. Loving this channel, Mike. Keep 'em coming. I may just cancel my other Patreon account and give it to you...... I have four Land Rovers so I can only afford one at a time...

Did you check the drive plate in the clutch?
@@BritannicaRestorations Yes, did not saw anything different. its also 3000km new
Did you check for damage in the transfer case? Centre diff could have exploded
@@BritannicaRestorations We have swapped the gearbox just to be sure, even with new gearbox, new gear oil it still does the same
But what about the transfer box?
Would a bad or faulty pressure plate leave my manual transmission car stranded without being able to move the car in any gears
Yes - but not very common

Hard to say as the clamping force varies with different vehicles
What kind of vehicles use this clutch

Thanks!
I have discovered that a few Patreons are contributing to me, rather than the Land Rover magazines - must be doing something right!
