What is a clutch?
A clutch is a solid disk that couples up the crankshaft and flywheel to the gearbox. It is located between the engine and transmission.
Effectively the clutch is what allows you to change gears. A clutch disk will press up against the flywheel via a pressure plate when engaged, when the clutch is disengaged it will no longer press up against the flywheel, therefore allowing a gear change to be made. -
What is a dual mass flywheel?
The dual mass flywheel, or DMF, is designed to protect the driveline from the torsional vibrations of the engine. It’s fitted to cars equipped with a manual gearbox and is located at the end of the crankshaft. It’s fitted mostly to diesel engines and high torque output petrol engines.
Ultimately, its aim is to make the engine starting process, the idling process and the gearchange smoother. It consists of two flywheels that rotate independently of each other. One is attached to the gearbox’s input shaft and the other to the engine. Between the two flywheels are a series of springs, which dampen the engine vibrations and prevent most of them from reaching the gearbox.
