Hi ya,

I replaced my OEM clutch for a Dual F CENTERFORCE clutch 5 month ago on my 02 GT. I hit the first stop sign after i picked up the car and when on Nutral i heard a metal clinking noise. When u press the clutch (push in) it goes away. Now it doesnt do it when the car is cold, just after 10 minute of driving. The mechanic said that my clutch is cable is streched out, and the TB is resting on the forks.
And the fix is a steeda cable adjustement kit. I still didnt do the fix, wayting till summer time. Now im having another problem, my car is vibrating between 1000 and 2000rpm in any gear. past 2000rpm vibration goes away. Doesnt vibrate when in nutral though. Seems the vibration is coming from clutch pedal/tranny.
Note that the TB and the Pilot bearing changed with the clutch, flywheel resurfaced ofcourse.
Are these 2 problems related somehow? whats causing it? is the mechanic (a mustang expert) telling the truth about the cable adjuster kit fix?

Realy apreciate the help folks.

Regards

Well yeah sounds like you do need a clutch adjustment. Maybe the vibration is your TB bearing. I dunno, hard to say without feeling the car. Maybe have your mech listen to the sounds.
