Clutch kit Opel Astra J 1.4 Turbo (2009–2015)

About this part

The clutch kit - plate, pressure plate and release bearing - connects and disconnects the engine and the gearbox. The plate has a friction lining that wears a little every time you pull away.

There is no fixed interval: depending on use it lasts 100,000 to 200,000 kilometres. The signs are an engine that revs up without the car accelerating, a pedal that bites higher and higher, and a burning smell on hills. On petrol engines the flywheel is more often solid, and with the same use the clutch tends to last longer.

The whole kit is replaced, because removing the gearbox costs more than the parts. The engine, the fitted gearbox and the flywheel matter: if it is a dual-mass flywheel, it is assessed together with the clutch. On a high-mileage car, with the gearbox off, it is worth replacing the crankshaft oil seal too if it is weeping: it costs little and the job is the same.

This page is for the 1.4 Turbo engine. Even with the same engine the part can change from one version to another - power, year, gearbox - which is why choosing the version remains the step that gives certainty.
