Your clutch is the connection between your engine and your wheels. It keeps you moving, stopping, and shifting like a pro. When it starts slipping, sticking, or making things harder than they should be, Grease Monkey is here to help. Our clutch services at select locations get your ride back in gear—fast.
Grease Monkey technicians inspect, repair, and replace worn clutch parts to keep your vehicle shifting smoothly. At select Full Service centers, we also replace clutch master cylinders. If your clutch is giving you trouble, we’ll determine what’s wrong and make it right.
How We Handle the Hard Shifts
We check your clutch and let you know what’s needed, plus a breakdown of the cost.
We unhook the starter motor and speedo cable, then secure the transmission.
This gives us access to the clutch components underneath.
Out goes the worn clutch disc and pressure plate; in goes the new setup.
We reconnect everything and test it all to make sure your car shifts like new.
Shifty Business
Clutch trouble often starts with how you drive—spot the signs before it gets worse.
If you drive a manual, avoid “riding the clutch” (keeping pressure on the pedal when you don’t need to). It causes unnecessary friction and faster wear.
Towing heavy loads or driving in stop-and-go traffic puts extra strain on your clutch. If that sounds like your daily routine, expect more frequent wear.
A burning smell can be a red flag. After a clutch replacement, it’s normal for a temporary smell—but if it lingers past a few hundred miles, let us check it out.
Jerky, rushed shifts can wear your clutch down faster. Smooth, intentional shifting = longer clutch life.
If your clutch feels off—slipping, sticking, or making noise—swing by your local Grease Monkey. A quick inspection could save you from bigger problems later.
If your brakes feel soft or slow to respond, the master cylinder could be to blame. It’s the component that converts pressure from the brake pedal into the hydraulic force your brakes need to work properly. When it wears out, your braking performance suffers. Select Grease Monkey Full Service centers offer expert master cylinder replacement to restore safe, reliable stopping power.
Our technicians inspect, diagnose, and replace failing master cylinders. We’ll let you know what’s going on under the hood and what it’ll take to fix it—no guessing, no hard sell. Just honest work, done right.
Step by Step
Here’s how we replace your master cylinder—from first inspection to final test.
We carefully remove engine parts in the way—no shortcuts.
We check the cylinder for damage, cracks, leaks, or corrosion and inspect your brake fluid.
We’ll walk you through what we found and give you a straight-up estimate—no surprises.
Once you’re good to go, we swap in the new cylinder and reassemble everything we took apart.
Brake fluid gets topped off, everything gets tested, and your brakes are back to doing what they should.
