Hey guys just untalled my exedy heavy duty clutch with solid flywheel on my vt today.
The syptoms i had of sorta grinding noise at high revs is gone which i found to be spiggot bush which when i took old flywheel off to be just loosely barely sitting in which meant it was spinning freely.
Anyway as driving the car home a was very nervous and cautious. The car drives fine but just noticed a few things.
There a very faint (but obviously to me, it dives me mad lol) sort of high pulsating low pitch noise between 1800 at 2100 rpm only and only with foot on accelerator. It sounds like somewhere frm behind or beneath the glovebox vicinity. I orinally thought it might be the originial DMF but is still there after replacing with solid one.
Sound two i only noticed once when just slowly opening the car up it appeared at just over 4000rpm and to describe it was like something grinidng. Hard to describe as i quickly changed gear when i heard it but i will try to recreate tomorow and desrcribe to more extent.
Also i was aware and wanred that when installing HD clutch that i would experience some sounds and vibrations.
Can anybody tell me what the expected sounds and what ot actually are and if i should be worried by this.
Also if anybody could help shed some light on, i have a ticking sound when increasing rpm. Sound kicks in ruond 3000rpm. Im thinking myabe its the oil grade im using (10W-40) as noticed in the manual that holden advises 20W-50.
PS While on case of the HD many people including exedy wanred of heavy pedal and harsh driving but after installing my clutch pedal is no heavier than before and is quiet easy to drive smoothly only difference i noticed and firmly grab on take off.
