Renault Sport 4-Pad Clutch Disc for Clio 3 Cup

4-Pad Clutch Disc Renault Clio 3 Cup: Don't Compromise Your Transmission

For any Renault Clio 3 Cup driver or enthusiast, the clutch disc is more than just a part: it's the heart of your transmission. Opting for an unsuitable or inferior quality disc exposes you to power losses, unpleasant jerks, and, even worse, failure during action. This 4-pad clutch disc (reference 7711162520) is a genuine Renault Sport part, rigorously developed for the extreme demands of competition. Without it, the precision of your gear changes and the efficiency of your traction will be severely compromised.

The Risks of a Non-Optimized Clutch for Your Clio 3 Cup

Your Renault Clio 3 Cup is a racing machine that intensely stresses every component of its transmission. A standard clutch disc, or a competition disc that does not meet Renault Sport specifications, will not withstand the temperatures and stresses. The consequences? Loss of torque, difficulty shifting gears quickly, and an increased risk of clutch slip which would cost you precious seconds on the track and could severely damage other components of your gearbox.

What You Can Lose Without This 4-Pad Disc

• Loss of Traction: Clutch slip leads to a direct loss of power transmitted to the wheels, costing you valuable time when exiting corners or during acceleration. Your Clio 3 Cup won't be as effective as it should be.
• Imprecise and Slow Gear Changes: An unsuitable disc can make gear changes rough, slow, or even impossible under heavy load, stressing your sequential gearbox and affecting your pace.
• Premature Component Wear: Excessive slip generates intense heat that can damage the clutch cover, release bearing, and even the flywheel, leading to high repair costs.
• Compromised Reliability: In competition, reliability is king. A failing clutch can force you to retire, ruining your efforts and investments.
• Reduced Sense of Control: A transmission that doesn't respond precisely to your demands diminishes driver confidence and the sports driving experience.

The Advantage of the Renault Sport 4-Pad Clutch Disc

The 4-pad clutch disc (ref. 7711162520) is the exact part used in the Clio Cup. Its 4-pad design, as opposed to a full disc, allows for better heat dissipation and more aggressive, direct friction, essential for maximum power transmission under heavy loads. It offers a faster and more positive engagement, minimizing slip time and optimizing every gear change. It's the assurance of consistent reliability and performance, lap after lap, for your Clio 3 Cup.
