1493989 Scania COVER

This cover, sometimes called a pressure plate cover, basically houses all the important bits of the pressure plate assembly. It’s a strong metal shell that keeps everything aligned and protects the internal components from dirt, debris, and just general wear and tear. It also provides the mounting point for the whole assembly onto the flywheel. Think of it like a protective housing, giving the pressure plate a safe place to operate. The whole clutch kit – and this cover is a big part of it – is what connects and disconnects the engine’s power to the wheels. When you press the clutch pedal, it disengages the engine allowing you to shift gears. When you let it out, it smoothly re – engages, sending power back to the wheels. This cover ensures that connection and disconnection happens reliably. It's really central to how smoothly your car drives and shifts. If this cover fails, things get messy pretty quickly. You’ll likely notice shuddering when you take off, difficulty getting into gear, or even the clutch slipping under load. It’s not something you want to ignore, because it can lead to bigger, more expensive problems down the line with the flywheel or other clutch components. Replacing the entire clutch kit, including this cover, is generally the best approach to ensure everything works as it should. You can often find a complete kit, with the cover included, at places like Fixparts Online, which makes things a lot easier than sourcing everything separately. It's a relatively involved job, so getting a complete kit is often best. One size fits all: Cover (MPN 1493989) has a 12-month warranty!
