Clutch or engine mount noise
Hello,
I’ll be getting a video as soon as I can but it’s a hard noise to capture. About 1k miles ago I developed a strange squealing noise that happens when I let out the clutch, but it doesn’t happen every time. It’s hard to describe the sound but it reminds me of a dog yelping with a very low pitch. Not only does the noise happen when I take my foot off the clutch, it will also happen when I’m in any gear, around 2k rpm, and I completely let off the gas. Is there any part of the clutch that could make a noise like this even when I’ve been in gear for a long time? I’m thinking it could be my engine mounts. They currently have 180k on them but they seem super beefy to me so I’ve been putting off replacing them unless I know for sure something is up. Currently have an Exedy oem style clutch kit with an oem 2017+ revised throw out bearing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |

You said that it does it when you let put the clutch pedal- only while driving? Or also when stationary?
If when stationary, only when car is running? Or also with engine off? If no to stationary, I'm betting mounts. What shape is your transmission mount in?

Another possibly unrelated symptom: when I release the clutch after shifting at redline I feel a pretty gnarly vibration on my left foot. Transmission mount should be ok as it’s from a 2020 car so it’s one of the newest parts of my car. I have a gr86 driveshaft in my garage waiting to go in. My current driveshaft has solid support bearing mounts which was foolish of me to install with the rest of the drivetrain being soft stock rubber. I’m wondering if that beat the crap out of the support bearing which I’m thinking could also be the noise. I plan on installing new motor mounts, driveshaft, and do drivetrain fluids all in the next week so I’ll keep this thread updated. |
