I just got the car back with the new clutch yesterday. It engages and shifts great, but when the clutch is let out there's a fair amount of chatter, is it normal with this clutch? I'm just not used to it. Thanks!

 

Yup, 100% normal.

After the 500 mile break in, it gets better. Mine hardly ever did it anymore after 1000 miles and now it barely does it only when I creep in reverse.

 

Mine chatters a lot

 

ok PHEW! I was like oh no please don't have something wrong with you....other than that I love it! Feels stock. Gonna break it in real good this weekend lol.

 

No worries

Just remember, it's the around town driving that really breaks them in. Stop and go, varying RPM shifts and not going above 3500rpms to shift or any WOT stuff.

Hardest 500 miles of my life

 

I took the main road to the beach and back twice yesterday lol and I'll be sitting in some nice stop and go traffic tomorrow. Ohhh yes. 500 miles huh? That's about what I thought.

 

Thanks for the help/knowledge everyone.

 

Yes thanks!

 

How do you like the KY Stage 3 clutch so far? I heard mixed feelings about KY Clutches and I'm gonna need one very soon for the LNF I just picked up cause the stocker that is in it now feels like crap/mushy and theirs No way in Hell that the stock clutch is gonna hold once I Add the DownPipe and Tune to my car.

 

How many miles did you have in the old clutch?

 

Rissa did you just stick with the stock flywheel?

 

yeah my chatters from time to time a lot more in the morning if its cold out, but eventually it quites down

 

I like it so far, I'll be able to tell you more once it's broken in. I had 58k miles on the old clutch and it was slipping pretty bad. My flywheel was resurfaced, but I ordered the new TOB with it.

 

yes cold and in reverse is when mine really does it....otherwise its fairly silent

 

i have about 1000 miles on mine now and the chatter is non-existant now. but it was kinda bad at first.

 

good to know

 

Mine does it all the time. sometimes in reverse and first when the clutch is getting engaged makes a squeak noise sometimes. Gives me noises but drives just fine so I ignore it lol

 

Like others have said, mine also chattered a bit for maybe the first few hundred miles but since then (granted I have maybe 800 miles on the new clutch) I haven't really noticed any sort of chatter. It does however grab like a son of a bitch really low on the pedal engagment. I'm still not completely used to how low it grabs yet so I look like a freakin tool who just learned how to drive stick all over again!

 

mine chatters like a bitch haha especially with my solid mounts!!

 

mine should be in soon...cant wait..oredering a new flywheel and bolts from zzp as well.

 

new flywheel is the way to go, Im not a big fan of resurfacing the stock flywheels on ECOs

 

Good to know I'm ordering mine soon :-)

 

Why? Just curious

 

Did a lot of breaking it in over the weekend for Targa Trophy...already feels a lot better.

 

I see this then I see peps saying it feels like stock.

This is why I'm worried about this clutch.

When does it disengage?
