Drillslinger Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Can someone please explain Flywheel Chatter to me? For a while now I've had some vibration / rattle when fully engaging the clutch (Or disengaging @ higher revs) as well as frequent grinding when shifting into reverse I'm HOPING that the clutch/flywheel is still good for a bit (Although with 133,000+ miles I doubt it ) So anyway, I'm starting to suspect that these symptoms I mentioned could be Clutch/Flywheel related...... so what do y'all think? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobes49 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 It all to do with these dual mass flywheels that have the clutch plate part move compared to the crank. The bearing fails and the clutch wobbles side to side causing the vibration/rattle through the pedal. More info here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drillslinger Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Thx for that link dude Now the question is..... SHOULD I get the damned thing replaced (Signs are pointing to "Yes"). Then I'll need to decide whether I spend the $$$$ and just replace it with the standard part... or go with the lighter 14lb VR6 Clutch / Single-mass Flywheel Decisions, decisions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
