Anoying Noise

[ellie]

I'm talking about the spring type noise that occurs throughout the sweep of applying the clutch!

I'll confess that I am a mechanic and haven't spent much time on it but it annoys the hell out of me!

It is usually where the slave cylinder push rod contacts the release fork or from the pivot point of the release fork itself. Mine is coming from the slave/fork contact point but I cleaned it and it was still their(as usual) but then a lubed it with a few different types of grease and each time it would go away for a little while, then return with avengence!

I have heard quite a few other R32's with this same problem so, has anyone managed to actually fix this problem?

I was even going to try coating the pushrod end in someother plastic to change the composition of the friction that is evedent with the standard set up.

Actual fixes would be most apprecciated

i stuck a bit of black grease(molybdenum diosolphide) and the sqeaking went away, hasnt returned yet its been greased like it since feb. you could even try bushing the hole with a plastic bush or some hose

you may have to replace the bushings (plastic things the leaver hinges on) to get rid of the stiction noise
