I've been doing a lot of research to determine what is causing a chirping noise when my clutch is engaged and I'm hoping you guys can give me some guidance.
I depress my clutch, put it in 1st gear and start to let off clutch pedal. When I get to the engagement point I start to hear a pretty loud chirping noise for a few seconds then it goes away. It seems that is the only time it chirps... at the engagement point in 1st gear.
After a lot of research it seems it could be the throw out bearing and lack of preload or it is just going bad but from the post i read it seems people have a slight chirping noise all the time until the clutch is depressed. Mine is only at the engagement point. At least that all I can hear but my exhaust is pretty loud. I got a new cable and I believe have plenty of preload on the clutch.
So, I'm trying to determine if my throw out bearing is going bad or if I need more preload. What do you guys think?
The throw out bearing and other clutch somponents were replaced less than 10,000 miles ago.
Thanks!
