The VALEO brand Clutch Disc (driven disc) is the transmission clutch component located between the engine flywheel and the clutch pressure plate. It is a round metal plate that rotates and, due to the friction linings on both sides, engages the rest of the mechanism. The operation of the transmission at a certain position of the clutch pedal also depends on the disc.

If the car is operated in harsh road conditions or there are other features of intensive use of the car, then checking the clutch system (CS) is one of the important activities that should be carried out at regular frequency. In the event that the disk or the CS basket breaks down, you need to take care of changing them in advance.
