hey guys me again, ok i just had the clutch replaced about 2 months ago, and now i think its making this weird sound. when im in first and i let go of the clutch at abou 2.5k+ rpm's the car makes this wierd little grinding noise, it increases when i am turning and i do that. i dont mean to do it most times im a delievery driver and sometimes your rushed to do things you dont want. this only happens on first gear, i can dump my clutch in any other gear and it would be fine, no sound.

ok second thing, when im on the freeway everything is nice and smooth until i hit long left turns, there is this vibration in my steering wheel/pedals/car ^^ its like when you put your lips together and go hummmmmmmm.. it stays there. only on left turns...

if you can help thanks in advanced

 

Uuuh ooh... not goody. This is a symptom of............. DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN-----------CRANKF UCK!!!!!!

Jokes aside, this may be true.

Also, the person could have put the throw out bearing in backwards (the grinding)

 

I would think throw out bearing as well but your saying its not doing it in any gear. The vibration is probably suspension related or drivetrain related like a joint or a loose lug nut on the tire

 

Hmmm......

 

but the grinding only happens when i just dump off the clutch hard to get a good start. when i let it off slowly like i usually would, it would feel just fine

 

Yeah thats the throw out bearing.

 

Sounds like a thrust bearig going bad, did u use an oem tob? Sebba I love the sig, funny as hell.

 

Thanks lol

 

are the thrust/throw out bearing expensive and hard to rplace? and how do i make sure its them?

 

if you dont know what it does, you shouldnt replace it. just an fyi. its a real pain in the ***. you need to separate the bell housing from the engine far enough that you can get in the bell housing and take off the old tob and stick on the new one
