The Buick Regal Flywheel is the engine's energy buffer, smoothing out the power pulses and providing the friction surface that the clutch needs to take off efficiently. Bolted to the crankshaft, this Flywheel is applied to store rotational energy. Its inertia keeps the crank spinning evenly between combustion strokes. The ring gear around the edge of the Flywheel allows the starter motor to spin the engine up when it is time to ignite. Once the clutch pedal is released, the disc is clamped back against the Flywheel face and transfers torque to the transmission. Over the years, the Regal line has been fitted with two main designs of Flywheel, a traditional solid steel disc and the more complex Dual Mass Flywheel, whereby the primary and secondary masses are separated by a spring damped system to reduce vibration and also reduce the gear rattle felt through the driveline. Solid versions can usually be resurfaced to eliminate heat spots or grooves, but the Dual Mass style cannot be machined and must be replaced if the internal springs or bearings wear out. For many Buick drivers, excessive scoring, warpage, or broken teeth on the ring gear are the top reasons why Buick owners find themselves installing a new unit to ensure that they continue to enjoy the smooth and quiet operation of the Regal drivetrain.
