HELP? Squeal coming from transmission...

[Dirty Octopus™]

Okay check it...

I got this problem see... from time to time when i disengage my clutch i get this squeal. it happens when i'm like half way having the gas pedal down and half way from being totally off the clutch.

yeah... so... however long i stay in that mid area of being on and off, thats how long the squeal lasts.

What dat iz? :thinking: :dunno:

I dont know if it matters but it started to happen after i installed my CC clutch and a CC 9lb FW.


Any help is preciated :goodjob:


( CC= Competition Clutch )

New throw-out bearing right? Did you do a proper break-in on the disc? How many miles on it so far?

(hahahah, j/k don't do it!)

Does it do it when your not pressing the gas,and just pressin the clutch

aight. will do. i think thats what i used when i initially put in my GSR tranny. but do you think it will help stop the squeal as well? do you have any other suggestions? :thinking:

it happens when im pressing the gas and getting off the clutch. at the mid point.

The clutch disc is chattering. You're hearing harmonics coming from it.

is this normal? or does it need to be tended to.

Mine does it. I like the sound. But... it hasnt caused a problem for me yet. My clutch isnt new though... so maybe I'm commenting bout the wrong thing here. But its been like that since I've had mine.

[speedminded]

is this normal? or does it need to be tended to.Has it always done it? Chatter is normal for some lightweight flywheel/clutch combos...it's a sprung disc right? normal disc or mult-puck?

I have the 8.5lb Cusco single piece chromoly flywheel and HD Clutchmaster stage III pressure plate with an ACT street disc...by far the best combination i've ever driven on a sub 200hp b-series.

maybe it is just your pedal squeaking. ive seen things like that before. turn ur car off, kneal down and push the clutch with ur hand. if ya hear something spray some wd40 on it and move the clutch. if thats not it, it's because it's a honda. lol. j/k

its always done it ever since it was installed. i'm starting to believe i have the Competition Ultra Lightweight Flywheel, that is recommened for stage 2 clutches and up, mated to a "stage 1" Gravity series clutch kit.

i put up a WTB a while ago for a lightweigt flywheel but upon purchasing the FW i didnt do research. partially because i didnt know exactly what model it was to begin with.
So this could be all my doing by not necessarily having mismated parts but parts that werent actually recommended to go together.

here are the specs on my parts...

to pin point where its coming from?

[Init2winit]

is this normal? or does it need to be tended to.I wouldn't say that its normal, but it will be fine as long as you can deal with the noise. Its kind of like brake pads squeeling.
