Default Re: clutch make sqeeking noise,clutch pedal wobbles

On that note, I lost a T-5 because the throwout had wobbled and made the aluminum retainer neck break. It made a really cool whining sound like a turbo or driving in reverse really fast until the input shaft cocked.......with me going 70 on the highway. After sliding sort of sideways to a stop (amazing it didnt flip) and having it towed rear wheels up back home and disassembling it, I had a well stirred up transmission. Amazingly, the flywheel was undamaged.

I'd replace it and throw in a new clutch in the process. Vibration makes things break.
