What could be the problem if its hard to engage second when changing down or from gear 3 down to 2

🎧 nice Z 🤙

out of curiosity, why that funny looking clutch design over a traditional circle?

So must I buy new clutch kit?

Quick question: I bought my first manual car BRZ and when I’m in first or second gear at around 1-2k RPMs it jerks, as if there’s friction in a part of a full rotation that causes it to jerk like if I’m applying brake and then gas, brake and then gas, repeatedly. My foot is not on the clutch and I’m just applying a steady pressure on the gas. I know that it jerks if it’s in low RPM or if I don’t clutch correctly. But it isn’t the same type of jerking and I don’t think it should be this way. Maybe my clutch is worn off or something else is wrong. If you guys or girls have any suggestions please let me know. Thank you.

Also, you have to drop the upper oil pan to replace the rear main seal according to the FSM. Doing it like this WILL LEAK, or at least I cannot find a single video where someone shows you how to do it and also claims it doesn’t leak. If you actually did that, document how. We want to know.

Word of advice to anyone trying to do this: nothing will make your car feel clapped out quite replacing the dual mass flywheel with a lightweight single mass and a sticky clutch.

Great video, informative and to the point! I'm currently trying to diagnose a problem with my car since the clutch won't fully disengage and start to slip and spin the wheels if I put it in neutral and let out the clutch pedal. You hear the whirring vibrating sound from within the car and it's really notiecable, even more so outside. A mechanic changed the clutch, pressure plate and throwout bearing, the slave cylinder and the clutch hose without any improvement. Also machined the flywheel. Any chance it has to do with the adjustment or is it more likely to be a pilot bearing or something?

How would you know if it's too far? How far is too far and how close is too close? I did a conversion myself and not sure sure if I should have put a spacer behind the push out bearing.

how can i find out the adjustment specs for my car?

I have 1 that is not clutching enough. Chevy 1500 nv3550 have bled it many times

2009 corvette manual, new mcleod clutch new slave cylinder, new torque tube. get rattling noise w/clutch engaged, no noise clutch disengaged. if i remove the slave cylinder, no noise. what can i do to stop this noise?

What could cause a pressure plate to stop returning back to normal position after only 60k miles and only after we removed it? Comparing it to a brand new one, the plate doesn't return up as high.

I have a stock 2015 si 😂what would you recommend i get ima go supercharger route soon but im stock rn no mods

Been there, had mine adjusted backwards, fully tight. Smoked the clutch. Having issues with z bar and linkage now. Buying a new clutch starting over. Last time split z bar and bent clutch fork. Lesson learned.

I just had my clutch, pressure plate and flywheel replaced on my Honda. All the gears are entering fine, but when releasing the clutch pedal nothing happens. The axles are all the way in for both wheels so I'm wondering if the issue would be because of the release bearing adjustment. Any ideas?

Can you do a video of the sound it makes while damaged

no csc delete?

What is the price of bearing?

How do you know if it needs adjustment when you cant see it if its installed?

Facts

Think my pressure plate had a tooth break off and gonna have to likely just replace the full clutch assembly. almost considering just buying a full lift and transmission jack and doing it myself. It'd probably cost almost the same as if I hired someone else to do it. They want like 2k in labor just for 3 hours of work it's a joke lol

Nice video. Thank you.

Are we not gonna talk about the guy in the background 💀

K24a with I,H,E bolt ons with Z3 Trans??

She's cute, but baggy pants are out.

Do you know how much horsepowers the clutch stage one can handle? I have a 2000 civic SI with a B18C1 swap turbo 600 hp. Currently I have a stage two but it’s a pain on the street. Wondering if I should go with the stage one or just keep the stage two

Ratchet rather. 1000s and never.

Torque stick 😅😅

Hardest part is dropping the exhaust without breaking any bolts

They way he looked into the camera and said it with conviction made me believe him lol

Oh so that’s the pits it in neutral shift fork-arino is it? No heckin’ way!

I replaced the clutch on a car with 34000km and the new one worked perfectly fine.

Looks totally fine to me. A little 120 Grit will do.

Ive heard this clutch is tough enjoy, how do you like it??

Cool!

Action clutch in all my miatas and rx7s for the past 24 years. The spot! Cheers! #323

Did you paint that pressure plate or did it come painted like that already? My Valeo single mass fly wheel kit was rusted out of the box. I dont want it to rust so easily.

Everyone tells me my throw out bearing bad cuz there’s a grinding noise. That means it’s hitting the clutch constantly ??

How do you make that adjustment?

Damn woman. You know more about cars than I do. Marry me💍

3 months ago I had a mechanic change our e46 clutch and flywheel. 3 days later i heard a banging and metal to metal sound and the clutch locked up, it sounded horrible like someone threw a hammer into the clutch and it hit with force and locked up. The mechanic fixed it free and said he put the bearing on wrong or backwards. 4 months have gone by and now when i push the clutch all the way down im getting a vibration and noise. After googling it people say its the bearing. Was this the mechanics fault? Is that part what he replaced? I dont know how to confront the mechanic because its been a couple thousand miles later but clearly he may have caused this. I never grinded the clutch and drove it carefully. Please help.

You is not making enough power for a stage 5 bro😭

Could this be why my clutch enganges like 10% before its neutral position. Makes it very hard to start in 1st

Good info brotha

@actionclutch Any advice or help much appreciated I have a 2013 dodge dart 1.4 and have herd installing a clutch delay valve delete kit helps keep the slave cylinder and clutch alive. Any thoughts on this since my slave cylinder is inside the transmission and cost me $1000 to replace.

I just had a shop replace my oem clutch with a stage one i bought off clutch masters. After they got my old one out then they said my flywheel was also bad. Instead of waiting to get one shipped i let them buy the oem flywheel. Well not even a few months later and maybe 10k miles i smell burning smell like i did when the first clutch went out and its starting to still rev in nuetral. Any thoughts on what they did wrong? I have a 2013 dart 1.4 6 speed. If i have to replace it again im just going to do it myself and save the $800 in labor

I bought a 2001 gt bullitt mustang. Very well taken car of but seems to have a hard clutch pedal and grabs as soon as it comes off floor. Seems okay but should I have to push to the floor to shift. Short legs and haven't driven a clutch for years. Ty

Just ordered for my Kswap setup. Cant wait to try it out!!
