Panic! Engine noise - scraping, rubbing i don't know
Well, I got an lower plenum upgrade and a plenum spacer installed few days ago on my european 06' rev-up. Then it was dyno'ed. I was told I had a bad clutch. No biggie, I was going to change it anyways. But when I was returning home I noticed a noise from the front I didn't hear before. It was like two things rubbing against each other. Like a wheel scrap that you hear when you move your car that sits still for two months.
No matter if I engage or disengage the clutch it is there. When I put a heavier load on the engine (3000-5000RPM) for some time, it gets louder for some time. I've noticed (after reving at idle a few times) that when applying gas veeeeery slightly, my gas pedal vibrates a bit. The best way to describe the noise is friction. Does a bad clutch or bad dual mass flywheel make a noise even at idle and standstill? Please help, I feel wrecked. |
Im only guessing but this sounds like my buddys clutch when it blew apart and a piece was roaming around and free. When he took it apart the pirce of the face fell onto the shop floor.
I would stop driving it and have the clutch looked at. But your explanation was very vague and open. Could be all sorts of things. |
First thing in the morning I'm going to a shop so they take a look and drop the clutch and dmf. I know it may be kind of vague but it's really hard to explain a noise.
The noise isn't constant. What I mean is, it isn't like throwout bearing that sounds the same every second. It's grind grind..GRind...GRIND...grind..griND. I mean every sound is a bit different. Geez... It's so hard to explain. |
