clutch noise question
- Thread starter jeffl9682
- Start date
If it is a chirping sound when the clutch pedal is not pressed but goes away when you even touch the clutch (literally tap it) then it's your TOB

would this also be a "cunch/click" type sound as well?
im still trying to diagnose my problem
when i push the pedal down all the way, as soon as it cant go anyfurther i hear a click/crunch noise for a quick second. doesnt happen all the time however
^ The grinding noise I'm talking about when depressing the clutch (TOB is bad) sounds more like a whiney power steering pump type sound than a click/crunch. Yours sounds like maybe the clutch should be adjusted or something? Is the sound coming from the transmission area or from the pedal area?
Pilot bearing/bushing?

i hate to take center stage in this guy's thread haha
i have two distinct noises..the one ive covered in a previous thread, and this one now
for some reason i want to say that one day as i was getting into my car my foot went behind the clutch pedal and got caught and i lifted the pedal higher than its resting position..this would probably explain this "click/crunch" noise
i could try resetting it i guess..
The thread starter shouldn't mind, considering that we are talking about trans noises and may end up helping him out too ....
As for getting your foot behind the clutch pedal, that's how you are 'supposed' to reset it. Pull up on the clutch pedal and then press it to the floor and that is supposed to reset it. Try that and see if it helps any.
Your issue in the other thread is something mysterious.

so i just came back from breakfast. i took the car over so i could reset the clutch. it seemed to have worked until i was coming back and i pushed the clutch in around the last turn into the parking lot that click/crunch noise came back
regardless of that though my clutch pedal feels excellent now. i should have reset it a long time ago.
however i was hoping that it was partially reset, giving me this strange noise :-\ o well

Try it again ... isn't gonna hurt. When you have time, check the cable and make sure it's not frayed or anything. Something on that little gear (adjuster part) could be what is clicking ... probably is actually. Lay down all crazy style with your head under the dash and look up by the clutch to see if anything seems out of wack.

I like Pro3 and all I got was this crappy CT.
your TOB is going.
Replace it soon, or else, your clutch can selfdistruct like mine did, because TOB was so bad that it pressed against pressure plate uneven

Make sure your stock quadrant isn't shot. If the teeth are ground down it could be adjusting and slipping back. If it's not that I'd replace the TOB just to be safe.
