PCT No. PCT/GB95/00267 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 29, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 29, 1995 PCT Filed Feb. 10, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/22014 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 17, 1995A clutch control system for the automatic control of a motor vehicle clutch which connects an engine with a gearbox under the control of a driver operated gear ratio selector lever. The control system controls both initial clutch take-up on starting of the vehicle, clutch re-engagement following each ratio change, clutch disengagement on movement of the gear selector lever to change the operative ratio of the gearbox, and clutch disengagement on the coming to rest of the vehicle. The clutch control system also warns the driver if he attempts to drive away in a designated non take-up gear or in any gear in a predetermined abusive manner and may be arranged to promote rapid engagement or disengagement of the clutch in certain abusive conditions to reduce energy generation in the clutch.
