ZF 4644.153.091 CLUTCH for WG 180/WG 200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 4644.153.091 CLUTCH is a critical torque-transfer component engineered for the WG 180 and WG 200 series transmissions. Positioned within the planetary gear set, this OEM genuine part directly engages and disengages power flow between the engine and the drivetrain. As a wear-intensive element, the 4644.153.091 clutch assembly ensures smooth shifting under heavy loads. For proper sealing and structural integrity, this clutch is installed adjacent to the 4644101203 TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the 4644301382 TRANSMISSION HOUSING, which provide the necessary mounting support.

Symptoms of Failure

• Delayed or harsh gear engagement: When the clutch pack wears, operators notice a pronounced lag or a jarring shift when moving from neutral into drive or reverse.
• Transmission slipping under load: A worn 4644.153.091 clutch cannot maintain full torque, causing the engine RPM to rise without proportional vehicle acceleration, especially on inclines.
• Burning odor or dark transmission fluid: Friction material degradation from the clutch generates excessive heat, producing a distinct burnt smell and discoloring the hydraulic oil.
• Intermittent loss of forward or reverse gears: Complete clutch failure may result in a temporary inability to engage specific gear ranges, often accompanied by unusual vibration.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This clutch is specifically designed for the ZF WG 180 and WG 200 transmission families. It is a direct fit for the WG 201 Series, as well as earlier WG 180 and WG 200 variants used in construction and agricultural machinery. The part integrates with the 4644301189 THREADED BUSH for precise alignment and the 0636302005 SCREW PLUG for hydraulic circuit sealing. Always verify your transmission serial number before ordering.
