Parts for your 1996 Daihatsu Gran move-Clutch kit

1996 Daihatsu Gran Move clutch-kit — what it is, and when it matters

Based on technical references including the Daihatsu Gran Move/Pyzar service manual and Electronic Parts Catalogue, Autodata transmission listings, and Australian aftermarket clutch catalogues (e.g., EXEDY, ClutchPro/ACS), the 1996 Daihatsu Gran Move was offered with both a 5‑speed manual and a 4‑speed automatic. A clutch-kit is relevant and used on manual-transmission Gran Moves, which run a conventional single‑plate dry clutch. Automatic versions do not use a clutch-kit, as they employ a torque converter rather than a friction clutch.

For manual models, the clutch-kit is the heart of smooth take‑offs and tidy gear changes. It typically bundles the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release (thrust) bearing, and is designed to be replaced as a matched set so pedal feel and clamping force stay consistent. In everyday driving around Aotearoa and Australia—stop‑start traffic, hills, towing the odd trailer—the clutch wears gradually, so owners usually notice signs like slip under load, a high biting point, shudder on take‑off, or a heavy/noisy pedal.

There’s no fixed kilometre interval for clutch replacement on a Gran Move
