What do you think?

Does the noise change when you press the clutch down? If it doesn't I think it might be the crank pulley, I can't really tell from listening on my phone.

Also you could do with oiling your door hing/check strap.

make a video of the noise when the clutch is depressed, and if that doesn't silence it, pop the bonnet, give us a good view around the injector areas etc, also the left side of the engine (when looking front on) to see if the noise is coming from there.

Could just be something loose on the air box if you're lucky.

You should be a tv show presenter. Be honest was this video really about the noise? I think you were having fun Undecided


RE: Thrust bearing noise?? - pro_steve - 22-02-2014

haha that's what I thought Tom


RE: Thrust bearing noise?? - PugLover1984 - 24-02-2014

Haha no never made a video before, thought I'd do it like they do on the telly!

Well it's definitely the clutch bearing. Should I get it done ASAP?

It is best to as they can fail and do a lot of damage.

Mine let go and bent the release fork.

Can't see the video now but mine makes a quiet rattle if out of gear but goes when clutch is engaged or when moving.

That's exactly how a dead thrust bearing sounds, kind of a dry metallic whirring noise.

Knowing's half the battle eh? aha fingers crossed I can find a low mileage hdi with gearbox etc and give mine a new lease of life.

That's it, i'm sure the reason they go so often is because people who don't know better sit on the clutch at junctions and lights, rather than taking it out of gear. Imo you'd be best off just replacing the thrust bearing, in fact you may as well do the whole clutch while you're in there, else you run the risk of buying one that'll be knackered in six months.
