clutch noice on tick over!

[rossco111]

Alright guys,

Today i noticed when i started my phase 1 172 there was a sqeeky noice coming from the engine, i had a closer look and its coming from the clutch area. I asked my mate to push down the clutch and it when away.

My clutch bits fairly high anyway so i know i will prob need a new clutch soon.

I thenk drove home which is around 4 miles and then had another loom and it was still there but abit quiter.

Anyone else had the same problem? The car has done 65k

could be the thrust (i think) release bearing, had the same kinda problem with my clutch.

Release bearing for sure!

Engine out job? Anyone know the price for a clutch release bearing? What could happen if i didnt change it for now, would it damage anything? I might aswel do the clutch at the same time!

input shaft or its bearings are possible

I wouldnt of thort so if when you push down the clutch the noice goes away. If you had a input shaft baring gone it would make the noice all the time

when you push the clutch the input shaft no more turning
so all of the gearbox is out of work and the sound goes away

No, drop the subframe remove driveshaft and take the box out

Had the same problem with my DCI, and as far as i know and what i was told you cant get the release bearings seperately, have to get a whole clutch system as thats how they come...

Not sure if its the same for the sport...

Lol yes but then when you drive it, it will wine it's head of if the input shaft bearing had gone,

thanks for the advise guys, gonna save up for a new clutch!
