spete7 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Is my Flywheel imbalanced? So I sent my Flywheel in for resurfacing as I'm doing a clutch change, and when I returned home I noticed that one of the small nubs that help line up the pressure plate had been completely machined off while the other two are still on the Flywheel. The shop I took it to refused to do anything about it as they claim that it should make no difference, however I feel as if it's probably slightly unbalanced now due to this? Can anyone confirm?

KiwiRS4T Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Drill it out and replace it. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/470942-is-my-flywheel-imbalanced/#findComment-7835642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 But in any case, your flywheel starts going out of balance the first time you use the clutch and material wears, then it gets worse when you have it machined back. If balancing worries you have it rebalanced after machining. I'd agree loosing a plug that large is likely to make a difference.

rat32r Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Rookie error always take them out before sending the flywheel to machine shop. Trust nobody Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/470942-is-my-flywheel-imbalanced/#findComment-7835787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
