New, possibly stupid question

tnav · 06-12-2014, 08:23 PM

My 2012 makes a ton of noise from the throw-out bearing, sounds like a bunch lose pieces of metal inside the transmission ... at times it gets louder, yet I only have 16k miles. Going to take it to Nissan and bitch about it, maybe I will get them to replace it under warranty and while there upgrade the clutch and flywheel. Maybe I am exaggerating, but I have only owned BMWs other than Z cars

my 09 does that sometimes, then i depress and release the clutch and it will stop...seems normal clutch chatter

Agree, classic throw-out bearing noise

I had a valet bring my car to me and the sound is louder outside.
