Clutch Rattle

Hi All
Having a drive round this afternoon and heard a rattle when I put my foot all the way down on the clutch peddle (release peddle and all ok). It was adjusted a couple of weeks ago because it was very 'fierce' when I first got it and it has been behaving ok. It all works properly, pulls away, stalls in low gear with handbrake on.
Help/ideas appreciated

Does the noise continue for as long as the pedal is held down, or does it only occur as you press or release the pedal?

If it is continuous (for as long as the pedal is held down), then it's likely to be a worn thrust bearing starting to rumble. You can leave it for a while (few months), but it will need changing eventually.

You should probably fit a new clutch while you're at it, especially as a clutch becomes more fierce (jerky, all-or-nothing power take-up) as it gets more worn, and yours needed adjusting for this recently.

Hi Type

Yes! It's the same noise for as long as the pedal is down……yr right, when I first got the car the clutch was really 'fierce' then when it was adjusted it was quite normal…..but for only a couple of weeks….while its in the garage I will get him to change the whole thing……tks for advice and help Type.
