Clutch help pleeeeze !!!

Brad · 04-18-2002, 09:18 AM

I had a Luk clutch installed by a pro.... After only 500 miles it's making a funny noise when engaged and changes with rpms.. If I put just a little pressure on the clutch pedal, it goes away.. I know my cable is about stetched to the max.. Could the stretched out cable be causing this? Is this normal? It does this if it is nuterual or driving in gear (when ever the pedal is out). Just need some advice before heading back to the shop.. Thanks

Luk clutch's....Doesn't AAMCO use those? That's what they told me they would install for me so they could supply a warrenty on it. Although I've never even heard of those..I said screw it, I'll go someplace else. As for the noise maybe the Throwout Bearing? I'm not really sure. But i gotta get a new clutch as well

King Kobra All the way

Yes, Aamco installed it... It feels better than ever.. and grabs nice and smooth, I love it, just has this noise(not loud but, there)..They replaced the throwout bearing, that was the problem in the first place.....
