Clutch problems

[zig553]

So after doing a super hard launch the other day like a chump I've noticed that my clutch pedal is now vibrating when I push it in and release it. It doesn't seem to vibrate when fully pushed in or when its just sitting, its only at about the half way point. Almost like something is unbalanced. It seems to drive just fine and shifts normal, just has a funny vibration. I've looked up the symptoms and it sounds like it may be the throwout bearing or a spring on the clutch disk. Any ideas on how long it can be driven on like this? Would it be grinding up my clutch every time I drive it?

probably broke a spring in the friction disk , and depending on how broken the pieces are the will eventually come out into the pressure plate (possibly scoring the flywheel) ,or out into bellhousing possibly getting jammed in ring gear, anyway Not Good and hard to tell how long it will last or what damage its doing till removal

I agree on it likely being a problem with the pressure plate. And since there is no way to know the extent of the damage I'd say the car is out of service until repaired.

I agree with both replies above. I would not drive car until you can pull the trans and figure out the cause if your noise.

Hmmm.... tits. Would http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/...-1-223-102-M38 this kit be what I need?

Are clutches are hard DIY job? Never done one before.

Easy, a bit time consuming. Just make sure you have lots of extensions and e torxs.

It's on AutoHausAZ for $215.

You could also drop the trans inspection plate to see what comes out, may tell you what you need.
