Thanks. I'll give it a closer read. Oh, and I ordered the swap SC today - so I'm making a bit of a commitment.

I understand the sentiment but I've come to the conclusion that I just miss a well designed clutch. Smaller slave isn't the end-all but it's a solid step in the right direction.

That probably is the case, but to this day I have never felt a hydraulic clutch that felt better then a good cable setup. There are plenty of bad cable setups though. I probably bought dozens of perch setups for my motorcycles back in the day to find one that I liked. I always ran the Yamaha GYTR perch/lever combo on everything I owned. It was cheap and so smooth.

Ask away if anything isn't clear. I have my own way of adjusting the pedal but it's more about the why than the how.

Possibly noob question from a not so noob manual driver
Can you elaborate a little more on when you are putting it in 1st? Are you at a stop at idle while in neutral and then pushing the clutch to the floor and then putting it in first? Or are you coming to a stop and in a higher gear and then trying to put it in first while still rolling? If you are attempting first while still moving, how fast are you moving?
Also, it’s not the fluid unless you just didn’t fill it enough. I typically fill it until it’s clearly flowing out on a slow steady pump. If you pump too hard it will sometimes back flow out and give the impression it’s full when it’s not. |

As for the fluid, the shop I went to, since I can’t safely get my car in jacks right now, did it by volume displacement of what came out. When I first got it back it drove like the car was brand new. I dont know if there was something specific about last night and now today it will be problem solved, or if this is a serious problem. I will say the weather it’s self and today at relatively cold, 10c average til like Tuesday. But I was up in the 3 and 4k range for about 20-30 minutes and the upper gears were driving smooth like it was all warmed up and I was going into second very nicely so I don’t really think that the outside weather has a huge impact at that point. I have considered it could be a ball joint too. My friend swears he heard it from the wheel well area but that doesn’t explained why I felt it in the clutch pedal... or would I feel that in the clutch pedal? I’ve actually never had problems with ball joints before so I really don’t know if that’s something I might feel in the pedals or not. I also don’t hear any squeaking just that very abrasive sound, and the problem onset very rapidly without warning so I’m just not sure ball joint problems make sense or not. I found this other forum thread that discusses a similar sounding problem to mine. Maybe not identical but I can’t ignore the similarities and someone with an Impreza down at the bottom claims solved from the arm below the shifter assembly not being lubricated properly, I think he’s saying, but idk that I would bet on that, as nice as the idea sounds that it would be as easy as getting some lubricant paste on it. https://www.subaruoutback.org/thread...t-gear.295313/ The last thing I have thought about is maybe a bearing going bad but again, also, would that only happen in first? And also, no whine... Further update. Just drove the car for about 5 minutes and nothing now. I am getting a slight click feeling in first and second as I come off but no more ratcheting sound, still no slipping, and as I said it was never like a crunching gear grinding sound it was just a subtle kind of rhythmic ratcheting that would kinda on off on off on off and then stop around 3500 rpm or when I go to second but now nothing is happening except a slight click like I said. Could this be related to the bushings? Last edited by T_Squadrito; 05-09-2021 at 12:37 PM. |

Ah... below 2 KRPM. It's just engine pulses kicking around all the rest of the uncoupled gears. A heavier flywheel would help but who wants that? You are now experiencing what you gave up in changing the fluid.
Perfectly normal. Gas it in third at 1500 RPM. Don't be afraid. Just get used to that sound. No harm.

There is a big difference between one and two cm. Has the gearshift lever been removed? I don't remember reading that earlier.

Not by me. I will take a video later and post a link so you can see. I feel (key word feel) like it’s more than a cm, like it feel like a lot of play, but visually it doesn’t look quite like 2... it’s just weird. Like I said I’ll post a video later when I’m back downstairs.

On video it feels like a lot less play so maybe I am just tweaking, but I just checked my friends car who also has a honda and he has no play in neutral which is what I am used to. I measured out around 14mm of play. I measured from far right position of play to far left usng the gear notches on the knob to measure. Maybe my experience with 4 manual cars just isnt that extensive. There are a lot of cars and im no mechanic. Just seems a little crazy to me. |
