I do not have a slight grinding whine, but for the past almost 2
years I hear a slight creak or perhaps best described as flexing metal
sound, it is a sound simmilar to a squeaky hinge.. Anywany i hear this noise
everytime I depress the clutch, it is bearly adiable witht eh engine on, but
when the engine is off it is very obvious. I had not clutch problems until
a year ago when my slave and master cylinders went out, I changed those, and
no problem until recently my car has not wanted to DOWN shift into second
gear. I can go first second third, but third second, or actually trying to
get into second going at any apreciable speed is difficult, it will not
grind, but I really have to force it in there. All other gears shift a
smmoth as silk, and I do still hear that squeky noise when I engage the
clutch, it has not gotten worse, should I be concerned about the noise? I
have a feeling the second gear problem is relatively benign and I will not
worry bout that till I need a new cluch, but the noise that I have been
hearing, Is that my throwout bearing wearing its life away?
just curious thanks
