[QUOTE="berserkdroid, post: 408195, member: 6929"] From Wikipedia: A double clutch (also called a double declutch) is a driving procedure primarily used for vehicles with an unsynchronized manual transmission. The double clutching technique involves the following steps: • The clutch pedal is pressed, the throttle is released, and the gearbox is shifted into neutral. • The clutch pedal is then released. As the engine idles with no load, the RPM will decrease until they are at a level suitable for shifting into the next gear. • The driver then depresses the clutch again and shifts into the next gear. The whole manoeuvre can, with practice, take no more than a fraction of a second, and the result is a very smooth gear change. Can't remember offhand as we bought a bunch of them together, but its not too expensive. The bearing is available at good bearing dealers nationwide. The clutch release bearing also is quite easy to find. Bavarian, Innerpower etc all stock it. Here's a pic of a new clutch bearing, taken today: [/QUOTE]
