This little guy’s job is pretty specific. It pushes on the fingers of the pressure plate when you press the clutch pedal. It's what actually disengages the engine from the transmission, allowing you to shift gears smoothly. It spins when the clutch is not engaged, and it’s constantly being pushed and pulled. Think of it as the messenger between your foot and the transmission. When you push the clutch, it’s this bearing that transmits that force. It sits inside the bellhousing, right next to the transmission, and it’s constantly working when you’re driving. It doesn’t really drive anything, it just facilitates the disengagement so everything else can work properly. Well, without this bearing, you wouldn’t be able to shift gears. If it starts to fail, you’ll notice if it starts making a squealing or chirping noise when the clutch pedal is pressed, or sometimes even when it's not. Ignoring it won’t make it go away, and eventually it can completely seize up, leaving you unable to get the clutch to disengage at all. It's a relatively inexpensive part to replace, considering the headache of a failing transmission. You can find a good one at places like Fixparts Online, and honestly, it's a part I always recommend having on hand if you're doing other clutch work. It acts like a shield protecting more expensive components, so addressing a bearing issue early can save you big money down the road. Convenience at its best: Bearing (MPN 086141671M) includes a 12-month warranty!
