I have a 1995 Eclipse RS, 154K miles, 2.0 non-turbo, 5-speed model. When the car is idling in neutral, there is a low noise level "clatter" in the area of the transmission. The noise stops when I push the clutch in. A new clutch was installed about10K miles ago. The transmission seems to shift just fine. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

 

pressure plate???

 

is that something a do-it-yourselfer can check out and possibl repair?

 

did you replace the throw out bearing when the clutch was replaced?

 

i had the same exact problem in my 96 rs. so i just had the whole transmission rebuilt. it wasnt my clutch though. it was my tranny. it was about to go.

 

Throw out bearing.

 

i agree

 

Yeah its the TOB for sure.

I can't see someone replacing the clutch and not the TOB. I mean, the clutch kit comes with one.... 99.99999999% of the time

 

What company was the clutch kit made from?

 

Earlier this year, I replaced the clutch, plate and throw out bearing in my 95 Eclipse GS. I STILL have that bearing noise. I now think that perhaps the fork that holds the TOB in place might be worn. Driveability is not affected, just irritating untill it warms up.
