Hi All,
I'm from the UK and relatively new to all this but i've read so much stuff here that i feel like i could build the car from scratch with all your combined knowledge!!
Anyway, I'm running an 92 V6. When i pull away in 1st. i get a strange squealing noise and the same happens again in 2nd. I'm pretty sure it comin from the clutch.
I was wondering if anybody else has had this problem....any ideas what it is???
cheers in advance fellas....and ladies!!

Re: Strange clutch noise
is it with the clutch in or out. kinda sounds like the throw out bearing. thats what mine did when it was going out.

Re: Strange clutch noise
the throw out bearing will last a while before it fails completely. while makeing the noise i drove mine on a 1400+ mile trip and it did just fine. but when i did pull it out it was bad.
