Flywheels

Bolted to the back of the crankshaft, your car’s flywheel does a couple of important job. Firstly, it engages with the engine to help start it. Then, when you’re driving the flywheel rotates inside your car, effectively storing the rotational energy that’s delivered to it by the engine. It provides the link between your engine and the clutch. When you depress the clutch pedal, the clutch disc presses against the flywheel, enabling the transmission to deliver power to the wheel, and get you moving. Flywheels can crack or become damaged over time. They can also become contaminated by fluids like oil in the grooves can reduce the amount of friction. A failing flywheel can cause your gears to slip, leading to dangerous driving conditions. At Halfords, we’ve got a selection of fantastic flywheels for all major makes and models.
