| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Clutch chirps like a bird when out, is silent when fully depressed. diagnosis: bad throw out bearing. this is the third clutch in this car for this same problem. the first at approximately 18,000 miles; the second at approximately 43,000, and now again just 1500 miles later! clutch actually disengaged permanently on the shop floor while the dealer was examining the car -- he was poking around the bearing and it "fell out" of alignment, completely preventing the clutch from working. this could've happened to me on the road, while driving.*jb |
