Land Rover Part Number: 576137 - Clutch Release Fork
576137 is a clutch release fork fitted to manual-transmission models equipped with VM Turbo Diesel, V8 petrol and Td5 diesel engines. The fork sits inside the clutch release mechanism and pivots on a fixed fulcrum to transfer pedal movement into axial motion of the release bearing, allowing the driven clutch disc to separate from the flywheel during gear changes. Wear, bending or incorrect mounting of the fork can change release-bearing travel and the clutch engagement point, which affects pedal feel and gear selection.

Frequently Asked Questions
The clutch release fork converts pedal movement into the axial motion of the release bearing so the driven clutch disc can separate from the flywheel during gear changes. It pivots on a fixed fulcrum and contacts the release bearing collar; wear, bending or incorrect mounting can alter bearing travel and clutch engagement, so the fork should be inspected if clutch engagement or pedal feel becomes poor.
