1961-71 Beetle / Karmann Ghia Clutch Return Spring
What does this part do on a VW?
This clutch return spring is fitted to the clutch operating arm on the gearbox. Its function is to return the clutch release arm to its resting position after the clutch pedal is released. This ensures proper disengagement of the clutch mechanism, maintains correct pedal feel, and prevents unnecessary wear on the release bearing. A worn or missing spring can lead to poor clutch operation, dragging, or inconsistent pedal return.
