Toyota Camry Clutch Flywheels

If you disassemble your Toyota Camry’s clutch, you will notice that the flywheel is nothing but a massive chunk of metal that weighs nearly the same as the rest of the clutch assembly and has a toothed rim. The design of this component is dictated by the functions that it performs. The purpose of the flywheel is to store the kinetic energy and smooth out changes in the rotational speed. As the flywheel rotates, it adds to the inertia of the rotating engine assembly while smoothing the action of the mechanical clutch. The toothed rim is there for the starter motor that engages it with its gear and cranks the engine when you turn the ignition key.

It is hard to damage such a strong and durable part. Typically, a clutch flywheel can be impaired in case of a collapsed clutch disc that can severely damage the flywheel’s frictional surface. And even though the Toyota Camry is known for its enormous reliability, you’re not 100% safe from such a problem, too. Fortunately, with our Toyota Camry clutch flywheels & components, you can provide a quick, lasting, and affordable fix.
