The invention relates to a clutch arrangement (2) comprising a shift piston (3) and a piston housing (4). The shift piston (3) is arranged to be displaced in an axial direction relative to the piston housing (4) between at least one gear position and a neutral position. The clutch arrangement (2) also comprises a spring element (14) for forcing the shift piston (3) towards said neutral position. The clutch arrangement (2) comprises a first return piston (15) and a second return piston (16) arranged on opposite sides of said spring element (14), and said spring element (14) is accommodated within a recess (17) of said shift piston (3) and is pretensioned between the first return piston (15) and the second return piston (16). In said neutral position the first return piston (15) is forced by the spring element (14) against a first stop element (18) of the shift piston (3), defining an end position for the first return piston (15) relative to the shift piston (3), and the second return piston (16) is forced by the spring element (14) against a second stop element (19) of the shift piston (3), defining an end position for the second return piston (16) relative to the shift piston (3).
