Hi Wolf_tm....
I had discussed your clutch problem with my mechanic friend. He said that there is no problem with the clutch. You had change the clutch fluid twice and there are no bubbles(I assumed) in the system. Therefore, your clutch master cylinder is fine so your clutch pedal would still give precise engagement and disengagement motion. His last opinion was maybe you are still new to engage and disengage the twin plate clutch and need more time sync the rhythm and timing with your gas pedal. Since you mentioned the engine bushing support. I remembered my clunking and a strong hit problem, but a little different from yours. The "clunking" occured during clutch disengagement only as well, but in both upshifting and downshifting the gear. My "strong hit" was from the rear of the car. The culprits were the gear bushing support and the rear differential bushing support. They were both cracked up and torn. This may not be the solution to your problem, but there is no harm checking your gear and rear diff bushing supports. To answer your question... "did you have the same problems when it was new ?" No... I did not this problem when I newly installed my GD. The only problem that I had was launching my car on 1st gear in a traffic jam. It took me 1 whole day to sync my left foot with my right foot. Then I got my clutch pedal adjusted to my comfortable disengagement distant, after that every gear change was fun. Cheers. +: Lar' :+ |

I even tried MANY times to release very very very... VERY slowly, 1/10 of a mm at a time, the pedal, but when the disc touches the flywheel....... KABOOOOOM ! immediately all the clutch is totally disengaged ! I read somewhere this could be due really to the front engine bushing, not correctly preloaded, that makes the engine to wind... I will try to give it more preload then... Thank you ! Bye -------------------- Wolf_Tm (Parma;Italy) [Silat-Kali]
