The Kia Sportage Pressure Plate keeps the clutch disc in the tight position of the flywheel to transmit the torque from the engine and then pushes it away for rapid gear changing. Mounted on the inside of the bell housing, the Pressure Plate uses a steel ring and spring pack to help clamp the disc in place while driving but retracts when the pedal moves the release bearing. Early Sportage models sometimes carried lever style three finger units with coil springs and pivoting levers which offered strong bite but had a heavier pedal. Later generations of the Kia Sportage prefer the diaphragm Pressure Plate whose cone shaped Belleville spring flattens under the pedal force, reducing the effort and distributing the pressure evenly for a longer life. Each Kia unit, both diaphragm and lever, is dependent on the face of the Pressure Plate to grip the disc, and a worn Pressure Plate can cause slip, chatter, or hard shifts, so every Kia Sportage puts power down cleanly when this part stays healthy.
