drlovegun Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Just has the clutch TSB finished last Thursday, but first: Since I've had the car I've had some clutch noise when the car is idling, which according to the manual is normal with the stock clutch. By noise I mean it sounds like a rattle/rumble and it's always been there when idling. When I got it back Thursday, no clutch noise at all and it shifts great, like a brand new car. Now after about 200 miles on it, the clutch noise is back. No worse than before, but it started a little at a time until now it's consistent when it's idling. Still shifts fine and no problems getting into gear So, am I being paranoid, or is this an issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're okay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The noise is normal when idling in neutral with pedal not depressed, it should go away when you depress the clutch pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroodNV Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Turn the A/C on when that is happening! Mine sounds like a box of rocks with the A/C on but dosent make too much noise otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well after the TSB I know have squeaking noises from the tranny below the shifter area, but not sure if its the same noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
