Title: Noisy Nissan!
Post by: albitz on 13 May 2009, 11:35:54

Brother in law has a Nissan Vanette Cargo 2.3 which he uses for work.It has developed an intermittent noise which he describes as sounding like 2 metal discs rubbing together,the noise stops when he pushes the clutch pedal down.First thing that sprung to mind was the clutch release bearing but he had a complete new clutch fitted 2 days ago and the problem is still the same as it was.Anyone got any ideas? :-/

Only thing I can think of is a problem with the flywheel :-/

Happened to me a while back, only there was a horrible grindng sound while pressing the clutch

Is he sure they fitted a release bearing when doing the clutch ? It would not be the first time it was "missed"

Tell him to turn the radio up, that usually cures bad noises :y






Unless he puts radio 1 on, then it will get worse.
