i have problem with the clutch, when the car is cold, the clutch is jumping. and it desapear when the car become warmer. it does that since a while, but this morning , it was too much jumping, the dash start to shake and i hardly go forward ¨hard to explain when i speak french¨. the guy at mitsubishi tell me that a guy that work there have the same problem than me. so he knows what i was talking about. he's gonna fix the problem with the car at mitsubishi and this week or next one, he's gonna do my car. so he will know exactly what is the problem, he thinks it's the clutch bearing. i will tell you more soon. who have the same problem than me????

 

C'est drole ca! Il y a des autres personnes avec le maimes problems. Bonne Chance avec ca, et c'est qie vous avez un warrantie!!! Je ne peut pas ecrire le francais tres bien, mais J'essaye.

 

huh?

 

It might be the throwout bearing, but every time I've seen a chattery clutch, the flywheel was just badly hot-spotted. Machining the flywheel fixed it, and slipping the clutch less prevented it from happening again.

(sorry, I don't speak much French)

 

Thats what my friend said it was a badly hot-spotted clutch, although he also drove a manual like an idiot. He rides the clutch in every gear, and also did not know how to engage the clutch properly, ie., slipping the clutch.

 

I have that a bit in the mornings...I just presumed its because of the resevoir in the clutch line.

If it is the throwout bearing will it be warrenty?

Crazy lancer - Did they say if its gonna be covererd under warrenty to you?

 

Well, the reservoir doesn't help. If you try to launch the car, the reservoir keeps you from engaging the clutch as fast as you want it to, and you end up with hot-spots.

Until I get the RRM clutch line, I'm taking it easy on the launches, and only getting on it after the clutch is engaged.

My Talon had a restrictor built into the stock clutch line, but that's easy to take out.

 

So is this covered in the warranty? Cause my car has that problem alot when I first start off. Sometimes it feels so bad as if I was revving it in first and was barely grippin the wheel on a turn. If you know what I mean. When the car is just doing that whomp whomp whomp. And what is the deal with the warranty? Alot of ppl are saying that there gonna be all voided, unless I heard wrong? I went to a dealer yesterday and the guy said they were closing in a few months.

 

yes it's warranty, if you look in your manual guide, you have 20 000km warranty for adjustement for your car. i have 8000km on my car since may 14th. i never had clutch problems with my ooooold 91' chevy beretta!!!! that such, i bought a brand new car for the first time and i already have troubles with my car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

o.k. good news. i just call the guy at mitsubishi, he said that the shaft bearing for the clutch was dry, no grease or something like that. so you have to put librificant on this shaft and it will be o.k. he thinks. tommorrow he will finish the job and try it. he said that mitsubishi didn't use grease on this shaft!!!

 

i'm still waitaing the call from mitsubishi!!!

 

o.k. so they fix my car, the clutch is not jumping anymore,they sandpaper the shaft bearing clutch and put some synthetic grease on the shaft. and now the problem is solve. took about 5hours to fix it, and they gave me a car for the day!!!

 

that's very nice of mitsu
