WRX 2010



Squealing stops when I press the clutch 1 cm down.
read it could be as simple as clutch pedal adjustment...

anyone can shed some light and help me, while I wait for the mechanics call...

thanks

make sure everything is/was properly torqued, if theres anything even a hair loose it'll cause uneven rotation.

kinda like if a pulley is loose it wobbles and makes the same noise.

pressing the clutch puts load on it which would stop the noise.

also was the clutch master (and slave if you have one, I'm not too familiar with subarus yet) properly bled after the new clutch was installed?

just got a call back from the mechanic, I sent him the video, we'll see what happens.

I'll also ask him if he did resurface the FW and bleed the cyls...

Im not supposed to ask this tho, as hes the specialist.

well so am I, but everyone is human lol.
you can have 40 years of Subaru experience under your belt but you can still miss simple things. lol.

hope it gets fixed though man. let us know what he says.

will do.

thats the throwout bearing thats why it quits when you push the clutch in

ive never heard one squeal like that though

although the only time I had one go out on me was when it blew apart on my '69 baja bug lol

didn't have time to squeal and "warn" me.

Release bearing for sure.

30502-AA120 Thats the part number. List is $52.95

thats exactly what a throwout bearing sounds like going out.

e/ i just realized you were the first reply to ben. that shark made me think you were koj i never even looked at your user name until now lol
