hey guys this really isnt a major queston but i am having a very annoying sound coming from my clutch pedal, it sounds like something scraping. whenever i push it down, it is fine, but when i let back up, it makes a creeking / scraping sound, i havechecked the return spring, and the pedal assembly and it is coming from nowhere i could see, could this be my clutch cable getting ready to go? plz help!

 

 

when was the last time u changed ya clutch? if you can rule out the pedal assebly and clutch cable, id say it was ur throw out bearing,but i coulnt tell you for shure unless i was there,but check for any rubbing or sticking b4 u get into that.

about 2 weeks ago i changed clutch, throwout bearing, and pressure plate, and it doesnt sound like its coming from the transmission, it sounds like its coming somewhere near the pedals, clutch is working fine, its just a scraping / creeknig noise when i let off the clutch like the pedal is rubbing something, but i've checked for that

 

The pedal pivots in plastic spacers that are greased. Take the pedal off of the assembly, clean, grease, replace.

If the noise were to happen when you press down I'd say the same PLUS check for tearing/cracking in the weld joints that hold the assembly frame together as it is a manufacturing problem.

 

thnx guys, ill check it out tomorrow

 

hey i just replace my cluth and right after i got it bad my was doing the same thing. i mess with the cable a little and suthing gave and i had no cluth till i tighted up the cable again and i had plenty of run on the cable. i'm still going to replace the clutch cable my's old and show sign of wear. dont know what gave.

 

HEY! i have the same prob, i forgot to lube up the throw out bearing or some **** like that. i need to work on it soon. it is really annoying. if you do it before me, post up the results

LOL, that really sucks man. You need to take that thing back off and lube it up.

 

Throw out bearings come pre-lubbed, you don't have to lube them up.

 

my old 89 used to make that same creaking noise its just something they do.
