Sinter clutches make different sound than a mass-clutch.

I have a ClutchMasters, mine does this all the time, I notice it more when its cold out though, not as much when its warm.

I've got the CM 6 puck unsprung Kevlar.

If let it out slowly, it will howl like a dying dog. It tends to get worse with heat.
