grinding noise while turning/slipping clutch
Hey guys,
After the 2nd time I accidentally slipped my clutch pretty hard at high RPM (haven't done it since, whew) I've felt a weird grinding feeling/noise coming through the clutch pedal when I have the steering wheel turned all the way and I'm letting the clutch out in 1st gear (like taking off from a stop and turning right). Everything feels fine and smooth otherwise. It doesn't always happen, but it's specifically only when the steering wheel is turned all the way and I'm accelerating while slipping the clutch. I'm slipping it minimally and under gentle throttle, too. I have a lighter touch now that I'm more used to the manual. Car only has ~1500 miles on it. Any ideas?
To help visualize, it goes like this:
-stopped at a stop sign
-turn the wheel all the way to the right
-rev to about 2k and let out the clutch gently
-feel a BRRRR through the clutch pedal for about half a second while taking off
-car runs just fine otherwise
so weird!
