So I'm not too knowledgeable in the drivetrain field but I'm a little worried about a noise when I'm at a stop and let out the clutch. It sounds like a churning or grinding of some sort. I'm coming from scooby's where trannies rattle a lot but this doesn't sound anything like my bro's Z. Friend heard it and thought it might be clutch chatter but i want to make sure I'm not just paranoid. When i push in the clutch the churning noise stops and when i let it out it starts up again. any help would be appreciated thanks in advance.

 

mine does the same thing i think its the journal/throwout bearing going out....

i'll be replacing mine this winter.

 

Thanks have to look into that... That's also what my friend said but couldn't remember what I was called. anyone know the price of an OEM throwout?

 

the chatter will go away with a throwout bearing, but its not really worth the amount of labor for that...i would wait until you have to change the clutch itself...they are about 12 bucks

 

thanks for the heads up. I will probably just wait to install a new clutch if it isn't doing any damage. I'm just overly paranoid about unknown noises from a newer car. Thanks again
