Clutches Northampton

The reliability of cars has improved and the average life of a clutch was somewhere between 50,000 and 70,000 miles. More modern clutches now can last comfortably for more than 80,000 miles provided they are used gently and maintained properly.

However, if they are not maintained properly then they might begin to break down at 35,000 miles or sometimes less. At In Town Automotive we not only repair clutches but we guide our customers on the best way to maintain and run their cars for longer.

Why Should I Have My Clutch Checked?

Your car’s clutch plays a crucial role in the functioning of your vehicle, enabling you to change gears smoothly. However, if you have your car for a significant period of time, it’s likely your clutch will eventually wear out and need replacing.

It’s important to look out for warning signs you need a clutch repair ahead of time, as leaving it too long could leave you with a costly bill. To avoid this situation, we recommend getting a check done by the clutch specialists at In Town Automotive at least once a year.
