I’ve done a new video today I would say that there is still chatter noise but definitely doesn’t sound unpleasant/alarming. I’m not sure if the noise is normal mechanical noise now, when pressing to clutch in and out. You can’t hear it inside the car only with the bonnet up. Tightening the bolt...

If this bolt was missed then possibly something else could have been missed also respectfully. I will update in a few days

Apologies for a late reply and thank you. Since my post I have driven many miles and not had a problem. The noise is intermittent, sometimes loud sometimes not at all. I took it back to the garage and they reckon it is gearbox related, however driving the car suggests there is nothing with the...

Is there a way to inspect the guide tube or release bearing from going in through the clutch fork area? Remove the boot and use a probe/ screwdriver down there to see if there is any play in the guide tube or release bearing? I won’t do it as I don’t know what im doing but is that something that...

Regarding trouble shooting.. I’ve noticed that car engine running, foot off the clutch, if I move the gearstick as if putting it into any gear (little bit of force), with the gearstick say held over at 5th, 1st etc the clatter noise will either stop or reduce or become louder. So I haven’t...

Hi hoping someone explain what this part circled in red is and where about it fits in with the clutch kit I’m wondering if this part is missing or incorrectly fitted, would it cause the clatter noise? Still trouble shooting :-/ lol

The garage in question only checked from underneath and not from the clutch fork bell housing area

Not that mate the external one the half moon with the o rings to the underside of the box It was very stiff to start with but much better now

If the input shaft was bad then is it wrong to assume that the person fitting the clutch would pick this problem up? It would be able to get overlooked would it?

The clutch I had replaced, the release bear would make a noise when the clutch pedal was pressed down. This problem now is the other way round. A completely different noise to the knocking is was more screechy

Thank you for your help again everyone. For a bit of context, about 1.5 years ago my gearbox developed a whine in 5th gear only due to low oil, I topped up the oil and the whine remained but settled now. I have never had and crunches in any gears or especially tapping at idle. I decided to get...

Louis I will answer that question at the right time 👍

Thank you again guys I’m at work now but will respond better later

Appreciate this guys

It was a brand new kit from RPD bought 1 month ago and fitted 3 weeks ago. Could the fault lay within the new kit or the fitment of said parts. If I can prove it’s either the clutch kit at fault or a fitting error then I can get it sorted for free. If I get it wrong and it’s the gearbox then...
