Checking the clutch function

Subaru Legacy / Subaru Legacy Owners Manual / Maintenance and service / Clutch pedal (MT models) / Checking the clutch function

Check the clutch engagement and disengagement.

1. With the engine idling, check that there are no abnormal noises when the clutch pedal is depressed, and that shifting into 1st or reverse feels smooth.

2. Start the vehicle by releasing the pedal slowly to check that the engine and transmission smoothly couple without any sign of slippage.
