2007 Subaru Impreza Clutch Kit: What It Does and When to Replace It

Based on the Subaru Factory Service Manual for the 2007 Impreza/WRX (Clutch section), the Subaru Electronic Parts Catalogue, and OE-supplier catalogues from Exedy, a clutch kit is absolutely relevant to 2007 Subaru Impreza models with a manual transmission. Automatic variants use a torque converter and don’t run a conventional clutch kit.

On manual 2007 Imprezas, the clutch kit sits between the engine and gearbox to engage and disengage drive. It typically includes the pressure plate, clutch disc (friction plate), release/throw-out bearing, and often a spigot/pilot bearing and alignment tool. Together, they let the driver take off smoothly, shift gears cleanly, and protect the driveline from shock loads—pretty important on Subaru’s AWD layout where smooth torque transfer keeps everything feeling tight and predictable.

Clutch replacement isn’t a time-based service like oil or coolant, but a condition-based job. Many owners see 150,000–250,000 kilometres from a factory-style clutch depending on driving style, traffic, towing, hills, and mods. Signs it’s time include slip under load, a high or inconsistent bite point, shudder on take-off, chattering noises, or difficulty selecting gears when stationary.

When fitting a new kit, it’s smart to inspect the flywheel. If it’s a serviceable solid flywheel, have it machined
