Within the last few days I started getting a whine from the car whenever I push the clutch in but it goes away as soon as the clutch is fully engaged or fully disenaged. It even happens if I ride the clutch without fully disengaging it (no, I do not ride my clutch normally). Everything is pointing to the throw out bearing. mad.gif CRAP! I just got the car all back together and now this. The sad thing is that this is a fairly new throwout bearing that came with my SPEC stage 2 clutch. If I had to guess, there is less than 2000 miles on this throwout bearing. Is the throwout bearing going bad or is it just going to make that noise because it is not an OEM part?

Did you grease the fork, shaft splines, and inside of the bearing? If not could be why it only makes noise as the clutch is being pushed in and released.

Dang it! I think that is it. I don't think I put grease back on when I put the LSD in the tranny. Ever since I started hearing this noise I have stopped driving the car. I hope I did not damage anything. I guess I am taking the tranny off to replace the throw out bearing and grease everything. Thanks for the info. |
