The engagement element is coupled to the diaphragm of the clutch by means of a sub unit preassembled on the diaphragm and consisting of a piece for acting on the diaphragm and an elastic retention means. The engagement element is coupled to the sub unit by means of a fixing ring which is held in place by the elastic retention means.
