Aston Martin Clutch Kits

Genuine Aston Martin Clutch Kits: Restore the Powerband

The connection between an Aston Martin driver and the road is defined by the drivetrain. For models equipped with manual or Sportshift (ASM) transmissions, the clutch is the critical bottleneck for that legendary power. Over time, or under performance driving conditions, clutches wear, leading to slipping, vague engagement, and a diminished driving experience. At Masparts, we supply genuine OEM and high-performance Aston Martin clutch kits to restore the precise, immediate connection that defines the marque.

Do not settle for generic components. Our inventory features authentic kits sourced directly from Aston Martin’s original equipment manufacturers, guaranteeing perfect fitment, factory-correct torque capacity, and the enduring durability required by high-output engines.

Essential Components of an Aston Martin Clutch Kit

A full clutch replacement is a significant maintenance event. Our Aston Martin clutch kits are typically sold as comprehensive solutions to ensure total system reliability. We supply:

  • Clutch Disc (Friction Plate): Available in various friction materials, from organic OEM for daily drivability to aggressive ceramic for track use.
  • Pressure Plate (Clutch Cover): Precision-engineered to provide the correct clamping force.
  • Slave Cylinder / Release Bearing: (Often internal/concentric on modern models) A critical "while you're in there" replacement part.
  • Spigot Bearing & Mounting Hardware: Small, essential components for a professional installation.

We also highly recommend inspecting and potentially replacing or resurfacing the flywheel during a clutch service, and we stock genuine and lightweight flywheel options for most models.

Support for Manual and Sportshift (ASM) Models

Our expertise covers the full spectrum of Aston Martin transmissions, supporting both traditional three-pedal manuals and automated Sportshift (ASM) systems. We supply genuine Aston Martin clutch kits for the following models:

  • Aston Martin V8 Vantage (4.3L & 4.7L): A very popular model for clutch replacements. We stock the standard single-plate kits and highly sought-after twin-plate clutch upgrades with lightweight flywheels, which significantly improve throttle response and durability (e.g., based on parts like image_5.png and image_9.png).
  • Aston Martin DB9 & DBS (V12): We provide the heavy-duty twin-plate Aston Martin clutch kits needed to manage the immense torque of the V12 powerplants (e.g., based on parts like image_7.png and image_8.png).
  • Aston Martin Vanquish (Original S & 2nd Gen): Support for both the complex ASM system in the first-generation car and later manual conversions.
  • Aston Martin V12 Vantage: Specialized kits designed for the ultimate analog driving experience.

F.A.Q.

Common signs include a slipping clutch (engine RPMs rise without a corresponding increase in vehicle speed), a spongy or unusually stiff clutch pedal, difficulty engaging gears (especially reverse or first), a burning smell after aggressive driving, and on ASM Sportshift models, juddering during pull-away or "missed shifts."

Yes, it is highly recommended. The flywheel is the other half of the friction surface. If it is heat-cracked, grooved, or scored, a new Aston Martin clutch kit will not seat correctly, leading to premature wear and chatter. On models like the V8 Vantage, the flywheel must either be replaced or specialized resurfacing must be performed.

Your specific Aston Martin model and generation will dictate the standard fitment. For example, the early 4.3L V8 Vantage used a single-plate system, while later 4.7L models and all V12 cars like the DB9 (image_8.png) utilize twin-plate systems for increased torque capacity. The best way to verify is to provide your VIN to our team.
