clutch issues

[gst98Tfast]

having a clicking kinda noise when i have the clutch pushed in. guessing its the clutch going out anyone have any suggestions they have installed and worked for them thats not top of the line but not a bad quality for a reasonable amount?

Depends have you looked on here for clutch and types for your set up so much in depth information, check vendors for prices and detailed information. Youll get prices too.

i have looked online i not to sure where to go on here to see different types and specs of each styles and for set up of car its mostly just daily driver and few mods nothing to extreme in future

You may have a different problem. is the clicking noise present when you barely press on the pedal? also if you take a right hand turn with a good amount of speed and lateral G's do you get cut out? Usually the clutch doesnt click in my experience its either the TOB or a spring from the clutch hub. there arent that many parts in a clutch assembly that can make that type of noise.

I agree. Sounds more like a Throw Out Bearing. Does it make the noise if you press in the clutch with the motor off?

it very well could be the TOB "on it's way out", if the bearings are going, it could produce an uneven rotation and the fork could be "clicking" against the bell housing.

it only happens when the clutch pedal is depressed right?

 

[DOHCTA]

does the clicking get faster with higher rpms?

 

[VTDSM28]

does the clicking go away when you rev it up with the clutch in?

so far its a clicking when clutch is slightly pressed in to all the way presssed in. makes no noise when the engine is shut off and i have not heard it get worse when i take a right turn with some speed. also same loudness when i drive and driving and revving the engine

Sounds like a bad TOB to me.

Like others have said, could be the TOB. I had a bolt in pressure plate back out (idk how this could have happened, maybe defect) but it was acting crazy. Ended up putting a new pp and disc on it with a fork w/ pivot ball. It was 6 puck disc, had fun trying to sell that to a few locals when I had to let it go.

ok so should i replace the TOB first anyone know price range to replace it and installation?

 

[Riceburning101]

Do the work yourself part is only 35 i think off extremepsi when i got mine. to have a shop do it i would assume the same cost as replacing the clutch bc its basically the same job. I think its roughly 400ish for that type of work idk havent had a car in the shop for a long time.

 

[gst98Tfast]

havent worked or have much repair experince is it alot to start with? or think i could figure it out?

Are you mechanically inclined?

You have to drop the tranny to replace the TOB, so you might as well replace the clutch and other wear components at the same time. It's not hard, but can be a PITA the first time or two.

ya i know basics but nothing that advanced so ill let a mechanic do it all but thanks guys

but now any recomendations on what to get i thinking a slight upgrade from stock like stage 2 or maybe 3 but anyone recommend any brands for good prices

when my clutch went out i had a mechanic quote me $1100 for oem clutch replacement, so i towed it home and did it in my driveway . Theres youtube videos of pretty much step by step instructions.
