Wear parts:
- Only if, as a result of the check, clutch wear is established, the clutch disc.
The clutch is self-adjusting and requires no maintenance. The wear of the driven disk is determined by the free play of the clutch pedal. The thickness of the driven disc is measured in the installed position using a special control template.
As part of routine maintenance work, the thickness of the driven disk must be checked every 80,000 km.
