We come to you for clutch bearing repair
Whether your clutch pedal is going to the floor or your car won't move when you let the clutch out, Lube Mobile can help.
Also known as a clutch release bearing, this small but important component allows you to make gear changes smoothly. Whenever you step on your clutch pedal, your car’s clutch release bearing helps to disconnect the engine from your wheels, allowing you to change gears smoothly. Without it changing gears would be a rough, noisy experience causing long term damage to your transmission.
Lube Mobile can do anything from replace your Clutch Cable to bigger jobs like replace your Clutch Kit which includes the Clutch Plate, Pressure Plate and the Thrust or 'Throw Out' Bearing. Due to the amount of labour involved in changing the bearing we recommend changing the Clutch Kit whilst the gearbox is out. Once the parts are installed we will adjust or bleed your clutch system.

How much does clutch repair cost?
We always strive to give you a fixed price up front and let you be in control of costs.
While a total clutch replacement can cost from $500 to $1,200, it largely depends on the make and model of your car. For 4WDs, performance cars and more exotic vehicles, the cost of a clutch alone can reach $2,000. With any clutch replacement the largest cost is labour, as it will take time to disassemble and replace all the clutch components. As most clutches are reasonably sturdy, you should only need to replace it every 200,000 kilometres, or roughly once over the lifetime of most cars. If you have recently purchased a car that is nearing this limit, it's a good idea to book a mobile clutch service to ensure that everything is working safely.
Once we've arrived at your location and inspected your vehicle and your entire clutch system, we will provide you with an itemised quote of the work required including the cost of any new parts. Because the work is done at your location, you can ask questions. This keeps you in control of costs and helps you decide if repairing or replacing the clutch is the most cost-effective solution for the long-term life of your car.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a clutch bearing and what does it do?
Your clutch bearing (or clutch release bearing) is an integral part of your clutch system that helps you to smoothly engage and disengage your wheels from your engine, allowing you to shift gears without grinding or damaging your transmission.
How does a clutch bearing work?
By reducing friction between the clutch fork and the pressure plate, the clutch bearing allows your manual transmission to go through the gears without causing long term damage.
When you press the clutch pedal, the clutch fork pushes the clutch bearing toward the pressure plate, which releases pressure on the clutch disc and separates it from the flywheel. This interrupts power to your transmission, allowing you to change gears smoothly.
Unsure about your car's service history?
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your car and save you money. Book a routine service or repair today and we’ll come to you at a time and place that suits your schedule.

- Squealing or grinding noise whenever you press the clutch
- A stiff or rough clutch pedal
