Toyota Camry Clutch Pressure Plates

A pressure plate is a part of the mechanical clutch architecture that is designed to press the disc against the flywheel. A pressure plate is operated through the clutch linkage and has a diaphragm spring that gets compressed when the clutch pedal is depressed and returns the disc to the flywheel’s frictional surface when the pedal is released. This spring is the most important and yet troublesome component in the system. Because of the wear and overloads, the spring leaves may suffer from damage severely, compromising the efficiency of the clutch.

Although this type of problems are not very common among old Toyota Camrys with manual shifters (the current generation doesn’t offer cars with a manual transmission), it still happens, which will require replacement parts at some point. When it comes to such essential and hard-working components, no quality compromise should be considered. On our virtual shelves, you can find a wide range of Toyota Camry clutch pressure plates produced by some of the most reputable manufacturers in the aftermarket industry, such as AISIN, Genuine, EXEDY, and others.
