Ok when I start driving my car from a cold start,
the clutch releases really strangely, it'll kinda "shudder" sorta like its stumbling,
but revs dont drop, the car just jerks/bucks right as its trying to rev up.

this is only when its cold, once it warms up the problem goes away.

could this be due to my throwoutbearing, I'm prettysure the bearing is bad,
it was harder to spin than a good bearing I had from another car(although it still spun smoothly, so I installed it) and I get alot of squeaking from the TOB area when the clutch is not engaged, but when I do engage it the squeaking goes away.
ALSO the squeaking does not occur when the engine is cold.

SO I'm guessing its the bearing, but I wouldnt expect the TOB to cause a problem like this, which is why i'm askin you guys, just to make sure

so let me know what you think,
thanks!

Did you do a recent clutch install? If yes; resurface the flywheel too?

scratchy

well pull the clutch out and check the flywheel, resurface the fly wheel and what for clutch did you put in, and always always replace the tob

installed the clutch/flywheel off my 150k mile cx motor, heh..

yeah i need to replace it with something better,
but i'm curious as to whats going on exactly.

I didnt resurface the flywheel.. but its touching the same clutch disc it was on the last motor, didnt have this problem then.
