Product Information

Transmission Clutch Pressure Plate

A pressure plate is a component within a vehicle's clutch system that applies pressure to the clutch disc, allowing the driver to engage and disengage gears; when a pressure plate fails, common symptoms include difficulty shifting gears, a spongy clutch pedal, slipping clutch (loss of power during acceleration), unusual noises when engaging the clutch, and sometimes a burning smell from the clutch area.

Transmission Clutch Pressure Plate Failure Symptoms
  • Difficulty shifting gears: This is a primary indicator, as a failing pressure plate may not fully disengage the clutch, making gear changes hard or jerky.
  • Spongy clutch pedal: When you press the clutch pedal, it might feel soft or "spongy" instead of firm, signifying a problem with the pressure plate mechanism.
  • Clutch slipping: If the engine revs up without the car accelerating properly, this indicates the clutch is slipping, potentially due to a worn or damaged pressure plate

About Sachs

ZF Sachs AG, also known as Fichtel & Sachs was founded in Schweinfurt in 1895 and was a well-known German family business. At its last point as an independent company, the company name was Fichtel & Sachs AG. In 1997, the automotive supplier was taken over by Mannesmann and renamed Mannesmann Sachs AG. As of 2001, Sachs belonged to ZF Friedrichshafen as a subsidiary company ZF Sachs AG. In 2011, ZF Sachs, like other Group subsidiaries, was legally merged with ZF Friedrichshafen AG and the independent business units integrated into the ZF divisions. Sachs has since become a brand of ZF Friedrichshafen AG.

Sachs is a trusted brand of the ZF family, which includes Lemforder, TRW, Boge, Stabilus, ZF parts and Sachs Performance. All divisions are well respected within their automotive specialty as they are all OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to car brands like Audi, Porsche, BMW, Volvo and more. Sachs specializes in shock absorbers, struts and clutches, with FCP Euro stocking many solutions based on your needs, be it an OE replacement or a higher performance clutch, shock or strut. All Sachs parts are built to meet or exceed the OEM specifications, this provides confidence and value when choosing Sachs over a Genuine part.
