So I put a clutch in my iX a little while ago (two months maybe) and everything has been fine until now. A few days ago I gave the car a little workout if you know what I mean. Now whenever I drive the car in an somewhat agressive way I get a little squeal or honk noise from what sounds like the clutch area whenever I shift up to 2nd or 3rd. It doesnt do it when I downshift though. It just happens really quick and almost sounds like a tire chirp when hitting second gear. I guess it kinda sounds like a saxaphone or a horn or something. Thats the best way I can explain it. Anyway if anyone has any ideas what this sound could be let me know.

Sounds like my sister's 97 civic's clutch. She needs a new clutch in maybe 10-15K miles. You just put a new one in though. Does it make the noise while driving normally? (Granny shifting)Originally posted by cabriodster87Originally posted by KershawComment

mine makes a chirping noise into second, but that isonly because i barely let off the accelerator as i shift. my clutch hates my guts......Comment

Well drove the car today and it doesn't seem to do it anymore. Maybe driving hard just made a hard hot spot on the disc ore something that caused it to make a harmonic noise. I dunno but I will keep you posted. No it does not make noise when I drive like my grama.

Could be the torsional springs iin the clutch disc, or maybe the TO bearing shaft isnt lubed sufficiently?

I can't recall if its possible to push the pilot bearing in too far, its been a while since I've done one. But if the input shaft is not supported, I'm sure it would make all kinds of noises.Comment
