Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a Mercedes clutch last?
Mercedes clutches typically last 100,000-150,000 km depending on driving style. City traffic and aggressive driving reduce lifespan.
What is a dual mass flywheel?
A DMF absorbs engine vibrations for smoother engagement. Mercedes uses them to protect the transmission. Failure causes vibration at clutch engagement.
Should I replace flywheel with clutch?
If the DMF shows wear or vibration, we recommend replacement with the clutch to avoid repeat labor costs.
Can you repair manual gearbox?
Yes, we rebuild manual gearboxes including synchro rings, bearings, and gear sets. Often more economical than replacement.
How do I know if my clutch needs replacement?
Signs include: clutch slipping (RPM rises without acceleration), difficulty engaging gears, burning smell, or vibration at engagement.
What warranty do you provide?
Clutch replacement carries 1-year warranty. Complete overhaul with flywheel comes with 2-year warranty.
Customer Reviews
Clutch was slipping badly. Metre Per Second replaced the complete clutch kit with LuK parts. Shifts are crisp and clean now. Great expertise in manual transmissions!
Vibration at clutch engagement was annoying. They diagnosed failed dual mass flywheel and replaced it. Smooth engagement now, like a new car.
Hard shifting and grinding into 2nd gear. They overhauled the gearbox with new synchros. Shifts are butter smooth now!
