Shaking when letting out the clutch

[Twistedhellion2]

For the past couple months every now and then my whole car shakes and buckles when I let out the clutch in first. Not so much in 2nd and never in 3rd,4th,5th I just changed my clutch and throw out bearing and it still happens every now and then so I was wondering could it be motor mounts, transmission mounts, or even the slave cylinder, or what? Thank you for any help!

What kind of clutch did you install?

I was gonna say ACt has a problem with that some times but it might be that your clutch isn't letting go of your flywheel smoothly.
You might have to adjust the clutch so it engages lower. That will totally kill your clutch engagement height but likely take away that chatter shaking feel.
Another problem is that your release point is so fine, close, or tight that if your a little off it will chatter or shake.

Did you get your flywheel resurfaced?

 

[Twistedhellion2]

I didn't resurface the flywheel it looked like it was in good condition and will it be okay to daily drive until I can adjust it?

I think that is where your issue is coming from. I had similar issue with a car I purchased, I drove it until I was ready to change the clutch. From my own experience it'll be fine to drive you'll just have to deal with "shaking". And Im not sure if you're refering to my post or my dream dsm but you cant "adjust" it you would need to pull the clutch again remove the flywheel and have it resurfaced by a machine shop.

You really can't eye ball a flywheel. It's better safe then sorry to resurface your flywheel when you do clutch jobs cause each disc or mileage brings different ware.
To save money I say adjust your engagement first before you dish out money for parts not needed. Play around with that first.
I installed everything new and I was having problems like you had. I adjusted my clutch pedal engagement and it went away. But like I said it's very low to eliminate that chatter.
If you give it more gas and slowly let go does that chatter/ shake go away???
If it goes away it's either your adjustment/ flywheel height.

I was talking to dreamt before. But I will try giving more gas and letting off slower, the problem is that it doesn't always happen. I'll pay extra attention tomorrow while driving so I can give a better description to when and how long it happens and if your giving it more gas and letting off slower plan works.

I've exactly the same problem, but my clutch is still the first one.

And I thought you don't have to resurface the flywheel since the N/T-Eclipses have modular clutches. Everytime you change the clutch + pressure plate you automatically change the assembled flywheel, too.

Had the same problem when I installed my ACT 2600 pp, 6 puck sprung disc, and streetlite flywheel resurfaced to the proper step height. Turned out being my motor mounts, I would check them if I was you. No offense, but all these posts are ignorant and lack complete common sense..

DSMDeliveryboy I was thinking that I was reading around forums for other cars(non-dsms) and they were saying to check transmission and motor mounts. I'm going to check them today and see if that's the problem. Thankyou! I'll post back later today.

^^^ ditto on this.

Just drove it all day it shook just a little leaving my driveway and then didn't do it the rest of the day.

yea loose motor mount bolts seem to be a problem with these cars id check that. Three out of four of my friends with have this problem with there cars then id try clutch pedal after that if it dosent fix it.
