    LWFW clutch noise

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Within the last two months I had a JHM stage 3 clutch and lightweight flywheel installed by a reputable shop in Phoenix, AZ. I followed the recommended break in procedures and all was well. I'm finishing up a 3000 mile road trip and have encountered some concerning noises. When I have my foot pushing the clutch to the floor at a stop (even rolling to a stop), does not matter if it's in neutral or a gear is selected, there's an audible chatter or grinding noise. However, if my foot is off the clutch at a stop (even rolling to a stop) in neutral there is no audible sound at all.

    Can anyone help identify this problem? Anyone else encounter thus? Thanks in advance!

    Hmmm, interesting. Sounds opposite of how it should be. I hear a little chatter when in neutral, which is normal, but it is silent when I have the clutch depressed.

    It's possible the clutch it isn't disengaging correctly.How is the bite point?
