Hey guys,
I’m redoing the stripes on the car and I’d like to get my hands on the template for the rear letters, they are already off the car, ( not my doing ) I was trying to a search for a JLT template but I can’t find it or maybe messurersments of spacing? I’d prefer the template but Owell lol.
Yeah if I do indeed do the clutch. Ill get some of that.
Yeah there zero slippage in high gear. If im driving i dont feel anything in my foot at all, might be to much going on to feel it vs at a stand still.
I guess if i did do the clutch, I guess just go back with OEM? one day i plan to...
To check if that bolt is lose is to engage the clutch and disengage. Car can be off or on. Funny part is when the car is off the clutch feels fine. It’s when it’s on is when I feel it in the pedal.
Yeah I’d just hate to rip it all apart and throw money at it when it’s not needed. So I’m trying...
Is there anything I can spray in there to try and clean the shaft? If i can get to it through the inspection hole. This is a weird one for sure, I'd think with these components if it fails it fails not kind of work then be ok, being my Clutch seems not to slip at all and the car shifts fine at...
Yeah makes sense, when I came home I heard zero noises and felt really nothing in the foot. Would it matter when I started experiencing this, it’s been really cold out would that have any effect? Or that shouldn’t really matter. After driving for awhile it did it do but the Amibient temp has...
When my mechanic took it for a sling he said he tried to get it to slip and couldn’t . Would that tell us the clutch is ok? And the sounds and what I’m feeling in the pedal are nothing? I will say when he had the car I heard zero sounds ( of course ) and I really didn’t feel much in the pedal...
So I went to the mechanic yesterday and he thinks it might be the clutch, now of course when it was there we didn’t hear any noise haha but he did feel the tap feeling in his foot when 3/4 of releasing the clutch pedal. He drove it and he said it felt good. He tried to get it to slip to test it...
Yeah, not sure how a twin clutch actually works, I’m trying to analyze something I’m not sure about haha so are you leaning more towards clutch then Anything? Is there a reason why I feel it in the clutch pedal? Or it just resonates like when you you feel something on the braking system? What...
Yeah I’d have the same guy who did my lashers. He told me 500-600 for labor and maybe $100 or so to resurface the fly wheel. He thinks it’s the throw out bearing, but while he’s got it down he would inspect the clutch. The weird part of this all is driving it drives normal zero noise or feel...
Gotcha, what on the clutch could be making that noise though? Broken spring or something or a bad throw out bearing? I’ll redo the fluids where do you start at? The calipers?
Is there a way to inspect the clutch without dropping the trans though a inspection opening Or not really?
I don’t see anything on the floor, I’ll take a look around the master cylinder. Yeah I know they make a SS line for the clutch which I actually have been meaning to do. You think this might be fluid related? This just blows my mind that the car is driving completely fine besides what I’m hearing...
Hey all, hope everyone had a fantastic new year!! I’m rolling in the new year with an issue I think haha
Ok, so my 14 - 29k miles stock clutch is making a noise when its almost fully engaged from a stop. It sound like a clap-clap it does it twice and I can also feel it in the clutch pedal...
Im happy lol, im glad I didn't just "let it go" I stuck with it being my OCD lol I wouldn't be surprised a lot of the "ticking" issues I see that this might be the issue and im happy I was able to track it down in my case this might help someone else to be open to the idea of looking in there.
*UPDATE*
I picked up the car last night and it seems its all fixed now the Noise is gone. We replaced all 8 intake Hydraulic lashers and 8 Exhaust on the drivers side. So my assumption from Day 1 was the culprit. I'm assuming when hot the lasher started to fail. When cold he said they all felt...
lol nah there something wrong here I shouldn’t hear noises like that. I’m more worried of driving it and not fixing it then run into a much bigger issue later on.
Yeah its a puzzle to say the least. He checked the exhaust and it was clean. The noise does sound like its coming from the driver side valve cover near cylinder 7-8. The thought its a weak exhaust lasher when it gets hot and is resonating out the exhaust. The car has 23K miles.
