Sheehy StarletGT Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 On my mark2 GT after fitting new engine the clutch has been iffy after taking it on small spins. It will be fine, I would go for a 5minute drive and on the way back the gearbox would feel notchy and not smooth. I have drained the system of the old fluid, replaced the slave cylinder and bled the system numerous times. I can get gears but have to really put pressure on clutch pedal to get a gear. The clutch was an Oem Toyota clutch and pp with loads of life left and I put new oil in the gearbox. When pressing the clutch there is a weird ticking noise like something is gently tapping something inside the bell housing. Any suggestions tips will be a great help.

gorganl2000 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 may need to remove gearbox...maybe throw out bearing or something not sitting properly or even clutch/pp itself best to inspect it maybe let someone press the clutch while you take a look at the gearbox and fork to see if you hear/see anything wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sheehy StarletGT Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 Ya I was hoping that I would not have to remove it. The car has been parked for 3years aswel but when I was installing gearbox on the engine everything looked perfect to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vturbo Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I would go with release bearing. Mine had the same symptoms and changed slave, but it turned out to be the bearing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I had a similar problem. The clutch disc itself was warped slightly meaning the clutch was never fully disengaged. Made it slightly difficult to select gears from a standstill, not too bad when moving, and a ticking noise from the disk touching the pressure plate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
