so went WOT getting onto the freeway the other day and when leaving the stop sign upon getting off the was shaking really badly and the clutch was making a ton of chatter. im use to the chatter but never experienced the car shaking. and on decel between 3k-2k the clutch pedal vibrates pretty badly. any idea what this could be? i havent changed the clutch since i bought the car since the PO replaced it right before i bought it. ( my dumbass forgot to ask what clutch it is)

 

bump

 

bump........any ideas?

 

Has this been a continuous issue since then? Does it only happen when starting from a stop? On my old clutch it started to vibrate more when it was getting closer to the end of it's life. You may want to strat saving up for a new clutch.

Hopefully you get some more comments to help out!

 

get under the car and pop rubber plug on the transmission, which is a view hole, and shine a light up in there. Have someone push the clutch pedal in and out while you are looking. Also get a wrench on the crank pully and rotate the engine so you get a good look at the whole thing.

 

Do you have the AC on when this happens?

 

Either the clutch let go and you have lost some material off the plate, or you burned it badly and the jitter and noise its it slipping and gripping.. Either way, sounds like you need a clutch.

 

it only does it when im leaving from a stand still, its fine when im moving, i did some more reading it does sound like the clutch is taking a **** slowly. sucks really thought it would last longer than 2 years. ive launched it or slip the clutch. any recommendations for clutches for DD? car is making 300hp and i dont race or do stupid **** but plan on auto cross in the future

 

Comp clutch---that's just me. Just put one in mine 400/400

 

maybe your springs on the disc is cracked or broken off?

 

When parked, have the e-brake engaged, put the car in 5th, slowly let the clutch out while giving it enough gas to not stall out. If the rpms raise, clutch is gone. If it acts like it wants to stall then it's not your clutch.
