An automobile clutch such as the Jaguar clutch refers to the main transmission clutch that connects the transmission shaft to the flywheel of the engine. Although there are other clutches that can be found in an automobile, the transmission clutch is the most important clutch because it is the one that is directly responsible for transferring the mechanical output of the engine to the transmission shaft. The clutch is part of the transmission system. It can be disengaged or engaged, allowing motion modifications without affecting the output of the engine. The automobile clutch allows the wheels to be relatively independent from the mechanical output of the engine.

Generally, an automobile clutch is comprised of the clutch plate, the pressure plate, the diaphragm spring, the studs, the throw-out bearing, the clutch fork, the bell housing, and the clutch housing. The clutch plate has a friction surface that allows it to securely engage the flywheel of the engine. The friction surface of the clutch plate is similar to the multi-layered surface of the brake pads. Typically, the friction surface is comprised of ceramic layer, metal fiber layer and carbon fiber layer. These multiple layers are designed to absorb the heat of friction and dissipate heat to minimize abrasive action between the clutch plate surface and the flywheel surface.

When you step on the clutch pedal of the vehicle, hydraulic pressure is sent by the master cylinders to the slave cylinders of the clutch mechanism. The slave cylinders extend the slave pistons to retract the clutch from the flywheel. Consequently, the transmission of engine mechanical output is temporarily terminated. The release forked is retracted and the clutch plate disengages from the flywheel of the engine. When the clutch becomes too worn-out, it becomes less effective in transmitting engine output.
