The flywheel pictured below has 5k miles on it along with a new pressure plate, clutch disc, throw out bearing, etc.
Clutch slips under full immediate throttle from a healthy four. What are all the "spots" an indication of? Attached image(s) |

At, what point in the 5,000 miles did the clutch start slipping? The excess grease you put on the pilot bearing and input shaft, started coming out the first day you started driving, and there couldn't have been that much. (That is grease you wiped your finger through in the picture?)
The alignment pins, are there for a reason, if that was the problem, then the clutch would of sliped from day one, (take the pins out of the old flywheel) The clutch looks fine, clean it with some Brakkleen, then sand it with some rough paper to clean off any carbon build up. (If you don't want to use this greased soaked disk, send it to me I will (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smoke.gif)) I still think it's the pressure plate (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) |
