Clutch in, horrible crunch/grind coming to a stop

Happens maybe once every 3 or 4 days. Sound lasts ½ a second. And everything is fine after that. Car always shifts just fine.

It's the throw out bearing ur feeling when pressed on the clutch, it's normal, now if you have grinding going on with the transmission goin to 1 from 2nd, or it's going hard in to a gear after the oil change I do suggest using RedLine oil for our transmission, it works wonders.


Also post a video clip. Helps a lot.

Yeah, as I said, used Redline MT-85 trans and 75W-90 Diff. Probably not normal as it just started doing this, and happens very infrequently, hence, no video. But probably is the TO bearing. Also as mentioned, Im not shifting gears, its just the pedal that's moving when this happens. Haven't seen anyone else here post a similar issue. Given the noise and feel of this, if it were normal, it'd be all over the forum, cause its pretty bad. I'll probably end up getting a new clutch. :/

i'd just take it in and let the dealer figure it out. i assume it is still under warranty.

Warranty ended in January. Unless this is covered under something that lasts more than 3 yrs.
