Understanding Range Rover (L405) Internal Clutches
Automatic gearboxes use several internal clutch packs, made of alternating friction and steel plates, to select each gear. Hydraulic pressure from the valve body engages them in different combinations.
Worn clutch plates cause slipping, flaring and harsh shifts, and the friction material that wears off contaminates the fluid. Towing heavy loads and overheating are common causes of wear. Replacing clutch packs is a specialist rebuild job.

Common Questions About Range Rover (L405) internal clutches
Can worn clutch packs be replaced without a full rebuild?
In practice, replacing clutch packs means stripping the gearbox, so specialists usually rebuild it with a full kit of friction plates, steels, seals and gaskets at the same time.
What causes automatic gearbox clutches to wear?
Heat, old fluid, heavy towing, low fluid levels and pressure problems in the valve body. Keeping the fluid fresh and at the correct level helps.
Should I fit an extra gearbox cooler for towing?
An additional cooler can help keep fluid temperatures down on vehicles that tow heavy loads in hot conditions. Get advice on a suitable kit for your model.
What should I send to order clutch packs or a rebuild kit?
The VIN and the gearbox code from its identification label.
