Clutch removal cant get throw out bearing off pressure plate fingers 2001 eclipes spyder gt 3.0

    If the bearing is stuck to the fingers, it has spin-welded itself on and is no good to begin with. Don't bother trying to get it off!

You have to insert a screwdriver through a hole in the bottom of the transmission. while pushing the fork away from the engine you push the retainer clip with the screwdriver blade. it should release the bearing and cause the cluch fork to move freely toward the engine. It may take you a few tries to do this. This is whats known as an reverse pressure plate assembly. I think its kinda stupid idea. If only the designers would look at what it takes to work on these things......clutch removal - m2242202_00014.png

2010 seat ibiza 1.6 sport sort of growling noise sometimes stoes for like 2 sec,s then starts again and stops when clutch pressed in.

indications are a failing throw out bearing for the clutch or clutch plate getting worn out AS the clutch plate lining wears , the pressure plate fingers come back closer to the throw out bearing causing it to spin
if you can make an adjustment on the slave cylinder push rod or clutch cable to give the bearing a nit more clearance the noise may not be there as it will not be spinning from the pressure plate fingers

My probe gt makes a weird rattling sound when it's running but when I step on the clutch it stops and thoughts on what it may be

it will be a failing clutch throw out bearing
there is just enough pressure on the bearing from the clutch slave cylinder piston not having a return spring to maintain clearance so as it touches the fingers of the pressure plate , it is spinning and the rattle is from the bearing being dry and failing
when you put pressure on the throw out bearing as in disengaging the clutch ,the bearing runs silent but it is not good and will eventually need repalcing

Clutch noisy when in neutral.When pedal depressed noise dissapears

That's the clutch bearing or sometimes referred to as a throw out bearing . When you press on the clutch pedal the bearing contacts the fingers of the pressure plate , the pressure plate is attached to the fly wheel on the back of the engine .

99 f550 cluch will not disengage. It sounded like a bearing was squealing when I would push in the cluch. Do you know if this has a hydraulic slave cylinder that may not be disengaging? Is there a throw...

You should be able to remove a cover or inspection plate at the bottom of the ****** bell housing to inspect and visually see the throw out bearing. It sound like it (the throw out bearing) completely went out or damaged the fingers it rests on to disengage the pressure plate. All clutches are pretty much the same. Flywheel bolts to the rear of the crankshaft with a pilot bearing in the center for the input shaft. The clutch disk is sandwiched between the flywheel and retained in place by the pressure plate. Followed by the throw out bearing which is operated by the release fork. You could have a bad slave cylinder, but that would not be the source for the squealing you hear. Sounds like it's time to replace the clutch assembly.

Which side of the clutch does throw out bearing go on

The throw out bearing will be on the outside of the clutch assemble. What it does is push against the fingers in the center of the pressure plate.

Rattle sound when I hold in my clutch pedal

Hi:
A possible cause of this rattle is the clutch throw out bearing. It is wjhat pushes against the pressure plate to release the clutch. It does require the transmission to be removed to replace it, and while you have the transmission out, it would be a good idea to replace the clutch, pressure plate and pilot bearing too.

When i turn on my car it makes a noise, when i press down on the clutch it goes away?

sounds like you have a clutch release bearing issue, when u apply the clutch you put a load on the release bearing and stop the noise temporarily..........remember to rate your experience

Clutch is noisy,when i depress the clutch the noise goes away

this noise is caused by a noisy clutch throw-out/release bearing, that is the part that presses against the pressure plate and disengages the clutch disk, the transmission must be removed to replace this part, so it is best to replace the clutch assembly at the same time, the labor for both is the same, about 5 hours
