Clutch Disc

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: Don't clean the clutch disc in a cleaning solvent.
  1. Check the facing for loose rivets, uneven contact, evidence of seizure, or deposited oils and greases. If defective, replace the clutch disc.
    NOTE: If contaminated with grease or oil, determine the source of the contaminant and repair it.
  2. Measure the rivet sink. Replace the clutch disc if it is below the limit.

    Minimum limit: 0.3 mm (0.012 inch) 

  3. Check the torsion spring for play and damage. If defective, replace the clutch disc.
  4. Place the clutch disc on the input shaft and check for sliding condition and play in the rotating direction. If poor sliding condition is evident, clean, reassemble, and recheck.

    If excessive play is evident, replace the clutch disc and/or input shaft.
