The stock clutch in my evo is chattering and then when I engage the clutch it stops. My question is the chattering in the stock clutch normal?

 

It must be freezing, BUUUUUURRRRRRRRRR.

JK , possibly a throw out bearing. How many miles?

Mitsu will warrant the TOB, and iff it damaged the clutch or spline push for a clutch replacement, compliments MMCNA

 

9900 miles

 

Are you modded?

Kept your oe parts?

I'd call mits and let them know. If you don't believe youve abused the car and/or drivetrain, it might be as simple as a TOB.

Do a search for TOB (throw out bearing) and see if some others were experiencing the same symptoms.

 

It chatters when the clutch is partially engaged? That would be the flywheel and or pressure plate warped or glazed. That usually happens from riding the clutch a lot.

 

I doubt its the ring gear or the starter would have trouble taking a bite. The clutch engages on a spline in the center of the flywheel. It could be heat glazing on the flywheel but 9900 mi?? I'm sticking with TOB.

It all depends on the driver, if you dump the clutch to practice your 60' times everytime your at a light, than yeah it most likely is operator error. But 9900 mi, I have 27k on the stocker, (jynxed myself) and am 100 whp over stock for 22k of it. With some drags under its belt my oe unit is still strong.

I think the search for related symptoms will turn up his problem.

 

can you here the chatter going down the road or sitting still. I had the same issue but only when I was sitting still in nuetral with the clutch released. dealership told me it was normal. just had a new 6 puck put in and everything looked fine.

 

The chattering is heard when I am sitting in neutral, I cant tell if its doing it while im going down the road or not. Ive never launched my car either. Ive noticed too that my second if kinda notchy and very rarely, but sometimes the 4th and sixth gear are like that too

 

There is a TSB on that for the reverse Idler and something else I think. I[m pretty drunk rightn ow but I saw something abotu that on alldata. It said it would get louder with the AC on IIRC
