high pitched noise when clutch is engaged ( video attached) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I'm hoping someone can help me out with this

the car was driving great, no issues and then after a quick stop a Tim hortons the car started making this high pitched noise.

got the car home, and now when i turn it on and engage the clutch the car stalls out.

I have 93500 km on the car, wondering if its a issue that PT warranty will cover?

Sounds like the throwout bearing is toast. No idea about warranty, since it's technically a wear item.

This.

Call the dealer and get them to tow it.

Any clutch dumps? I'm wondering if thats a normal wear item?

Yep, TOB. On subarus, if you're relatively easy on the clutch, the TOB will always go first. But they usually last at least 75K, unless you continuously have the clutch pedal depressed at Red lights. Every time your foot is on the clutch, you are wearing the TOB.

75k kilometers or miles?
Just asking when mines got close to trade in before explode on me

Of course it's a generalization, but they are usually good for about 75,000 miles if you are easy on it and stay in neutral when stopped. That number can vary widely depending on what kind of driving you do, it's just based on my experience with previous subaru ownership.
