This little guy’s job is pretty specific. It pushes on the throwout fork when you press the clutch pedal. That fork then disengages the engine from the transmission, letting you shift gears. It's a simple push – and – release action, happening every time you use the clutch. It spins when the clutch isn’t engaged and then actively pushes when it is. Think of it as a bridge between your foot and the actual disconnecting of the engine and transmission. When you push the clutch pedal, it doesn’t directly move anything inside the transmission itself. The pedal activates a hydraulic system or cable that then activates this bearing. The bearing itself is what physically makes contact and does the work of pushing. It sits right against the pressure plate fingers and is crucial for smooth gear changes. It’s important because if this bearing fails, you’ll notice it. Usually it'll start with a whining or chirping sound when the clutch pedal is pressed, or even when it’s not. That sound gets progressively worse as the bearing wears out. If it fails completely, you might not be able to get the clutch to disengage at all, meaning you can’t shift gears, and that can leave you stranded. It's a relatively inexpensive part, considering the trouble it can save you. You can find replacements, like this one, at places like Fixparts Online, and it's often replaced when you do a clutch job anyway, just as preventative maintenance. It acts like a shield, protecting more expensive components from wear. Shop with confidence: Clutch Release Bearing (MPN 105357) comes with a 3 year manufacturer guarantee!
