2. ការណែនាំអំពីការដំឡើង
Installation of the Valeo 827368 Clutch Kit requires specialized tools and expertise. It is strongly recommended that installation be performed by a qualified automotive technician. Improper installation can lead to premature wear, component damage, or unsafe vehicle operation.
2.1 ការត្រួតពិនិត្យការដំឡើងជាមុន
- Inspect the flywheel for hot spots, cracks, or excessive wear. Resurface or replace if necessary.
- Check the pilot bearing/bushing for smooth rotation and proper fit. Replace if worn.
- Inspect the transmission input shaft for spline wear or damage.
- Clean all mating surfaces on the engine block, transmission bell housing, and flywheel to ensure proper seating.
- Ensure all new components are free from damage or defects before installation.
2.2 Installation Procedure (General)
- Safely remove the transmission and old clutch components according to vehicle-specific service manual procedures.
- Install the new pilot bearing/bushing into the crankshaft.
- Mount the flywheel (if removed or replaced) and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications.
- Using a clutch alignment tool, position the new clutch disc and pressure plate onto the flywheel.
- Install the pressure plate bolts and tighten them evenly in a star pattern to the specified torque. Remove the alignment tool.
- Install the new clutch release bearing (throw-out bearing) onto the transmission input shaft or fork. Lubricate contact points as recommended.
- Carefully re-install the transmission, ensuring the input shaft engages smoothly with the clutch disc splines. Do not force the transmission into place.
- Reconnect all associated components (starter, driveshaft, hydraulic lines, etc.) and refill transmission fluid if drained.
- Perform a functional check of the clutch system before driving.

៥. លក្ខណៈប្រតិបត្តិការ
The Valeo 827368 Clutch Kit is designed to provide smooth engagement and efficient power transfer from the engine to the transmission. Proper clutch operation is essential for vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, and longevity of drivetrain components.
៤ ប្រតិបត្តិការធម្មតា
A properly functioning clutch should engage smoothly and progressively when the pedal is released, without any noticeable slipping, chattering, or harsh engagement. The clutch pedal should have a consistent feel throughout its travel and return fully to its resting position. Shifting gears should be smooth and effortless, without grinding.
3.2 Signs of Wear
- រអិល៖ Engine RPM increases but vehicle speed does not, especially under acceleration or uphill. This indicates the clutch disc is not fully engaging.
- Chattering/Shuddering: A vibration or shaking sensation during clutch engagement, often indicating uneven wear or contamination.
- Hard Pedal: Excessive force required to depress the clutch pedal, which could indicate issues with the pressure plate, release bearing, or hydraulic system.
- Grinding Noises: Sounds during shifting, particularly when engaging gears, may indicate incomplete clutch disengagement or worn synchronizers.
- ក្លិនដុត៖ A distinct burning odor, especially after heavy use, is a strong indicator of clutch overheating due to excessive slipping.
4. ការថែទាំនិងការថែទាំ
While the clutch kit itself is a wear item designed for a specific lifespan, proper driving habits can significantly extend its operational life and maintain optimal performance.
- Avoid Riding the Clutch: Do not keep your foot on the clutch pedal while driving, as this causes partial engagement and premature wear.
- Proper Shifting: Fully depress the clutch pedal when shifting gears and release it smoothly and completely after engagement. Avoid aggressive or jerky shifts.
- Neutral at Stops: When stopped for more than a few seconds, shift into neutral and release the clutch pedal to reduce wear on the release bearing and pressure plate.
- ជៀសវាងការផ្ទុកលើសទម្ងន់៖ Do not exceed the vehicle's towing or payload capacity, as this puts excessive strain on the clutch.
- ការត្រួតពិនិត្យជាប្រចាំ៖ If accessible, periodically check for fluid leaks (for hydraulic systems) and proper pedal free play.
