Noise from rear after clutch/flywheel


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Afternoon guys, recently had my clutch and flywheel changed, car drives fine but at low speeds especially the rear of the car makes grinding/clunking sounds or maybe even a vibration. The guy fitting the parts had to grind a bolt off as it was bent on a metal brace towards the rear of the car, it's now back on but doesn't sit true as its been damaged. Is that the issue or do you think it could be something else?

 

Many thanks

Not sure what brace you mean as nothing requires removing at the rear to get the gearbox out except the prop.

 

However regarding the clunk, just make sure that they have tightened up the prop to diff. bolts and regarding the vibration, check that they refitted the prop in the same position.

Hmm maybe it's the prop then, I will get them to strip it back down as the car drives and pulls fine, but is louder than before from the front (more whine) and at lower speeds vibrates/clunks.

Here is a video of it on the ramp

I have had a comp stock clutch and flywheel fitted and changed the gearbox oil to castrol 70-90 I think it was, otherwise nothing else has changed and it drives fine besides the noise.

Any other input please guys?
