Good Day All;
Just recently joined. I'm from Ontario, Canada and own an 89, 5.0, 5spd notchback with just over 160,000km (100,000mi) on the odometer. Having an issue and would like to know if anyone has experienced the same. My car only gets driven about 2500km per year as it is a toy and not used as a daily driver. about 4 years ago I had the flywheel machined, replaced the clutch and throw out bearing. Bought a RAM clutch and a Summit Racing throw out bearing. This past summer I started noticing squeaking when I was releasing the clutch pedal and once it was fully released a ticking. The ticking disappears when you put slight pressure on the pedal. The ticking tells me throw out bearing and the squeaking maybe the fulcrum that the clutch release fork pivots on. However I wouldn't think the throw out bearing would be worn already.
Has anybody had a similar experience with these issues. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
