lebest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I have the "clutch chatter" but damn its seems really loud. Does anyone live in or around Houston with a GT500 that has the clutch chatter? I would really like to compare my "normal chatter" to someone else. I live in League City which is about 30 miles 30 of Houston. Thanks Law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilmor Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Don't know if related exactly, because I have a Shelby GT, but mine had a chatter when I first got the car. Ford replaced my clutch and resurfaced my flywheel under warranty, and its been fine ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPRSNK Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I'll have my 08 GT500 at TWS this weekend as well. C'mon up and compare cars with us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcthorne Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Get 3.73 or 4.10 gears and your clutch chatter will be GONE. The chatter is wearing your clutch quickly. Several 07s that are approaching 20kmiles with the stock 3.31 gears are having to replace clutches due to wear. Have not seen anyone with 3.31 gears get past 25k on the factory clutch yet...... Diving technique can also help a lot with the chatter. Oh, and I am up near the HP campus on 249 and Louetta, you are welcome to stop by if in the area and compare.

sharabi Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 what exactly is clutch chatter? I found this on you tube for a different car but principle is the same http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_Vc7IXfdSg Am quoting from an article what clutch chatter is about: "Clutch "chatter" is often caused by an overheated clutch (normally from "slipping" the clutch when starting on an incline) or from oil on the clutch disk. In either case, the clutch must be replaced" the link to the article is: http://www.edmunds.com/ownership/techcente...37/article.html if any one who had a clutch chatter on our gt500 can post a sound clip would be greatly appreciated.
