2019 Manual Transmission Grinding Sound

SouthArk370Z · 11-16-2019, 12:51 AM

Probably the normal sound made by the pressure plate/clutch/flywheel arrangement of the Z - many others have reported the same "problem." As per Spooler, it could be a pilot bushing but that would be low on my list for a low-mileage Z.

Reported on this forum? I've seen several threads about rattling at idle, clunking during 1st-to-2nd shifts, etc. but haven't been able to find any posts here or elsewhere about grinding at 5,000 RPM. As I said, this wasn't happening at all in my old 2010, so it seems to be a more recent problem related to the new clutch Nissan started using in the past couple years.
