We come to you for clutch cable repair
If you can't get into gear or your car won't even move, Lube Mobile can replace a clutch cable on your driveway at home!
Your car's clutch cable acts like a cord that connects your foot to the engine. Pressing the clutch pedal disengages the engine from your wheels and allows you to change gears smoothly. If your clutch cable becomes worn, changing gears will become much harder and your clutch pedal will start to feel stiff.
If left alone, your clutch pedal will start going to the floor and you won't get into gear at all, leaving you stranded. Lube Mobile can come to you and replace your clutch cable fast. Our vans are fully equipped to replace a worn clutch cable. Once a new clutch cable has been fitted, we will also bleed your brakes as well as your entire clutch system.
Having problems with your clutch? It's easy to book online or call 13 30 32 to make an appointment today.

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.

Where is my clutch cable and what does it do?
Your clutch cable is a key component of any manual transmission vehicle, effectively connecting your clutch pedal to your engine and allowing it to disengage while changing gears and then re-engage while accelerating.
How does my clutch cable work?
When you press your clutch pedal, the cable pulls on the clutch mechanism, temporarily disconnecting the engine from the wheels. This allows you to change gears smoothly without grinding or damaging the transmission.
Over time your clutch cable will become stretched or worn, making it difficult to change gears. If you start to notice difficulty in finding gears or regular grinding whenever you change gears, it’s time you had your clutch cable inspected or replaced.
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.
How can I tell if my clutch cable needs replacing?
The lifespan of your clutch cable will vary based on your driving habits and local conditions. It's advisable to have your clutch system inspected during regular vehicle servicing because early detection will prevent sudden failures.
Here are some recognised signs of a worn clutch cable:
Difficulty Shifting Gears: Grinding noises when changing gears can suggest a stretched or deteriorating clutch cable.
Spongy or Loose Clutch Pedal: If the clutch pedal feels unusually soft or lacks resistance, it might indicate a compromised cable.
Delayed Clutch Engagement: A noticeable lag between pressing the clutch pedal and the actual engagement can be a sign of cable wear.
If you notice any of the above symptoms, book a routine service or repair and we’ll come to you, diagnose your car's problem and give you an itemised quote before we do any work.
