#1: Vibrates when clutch is engaged Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 3:43 pm ---- After a visit to the garage the mechanics tested if engine mounts was the cause of this and said it was not. They said it had to do something with the rear can anyone tell me what he is on about? I rather buy parts online and pay for labour only at garage, I have to visit again as they didn't know the exact cause and neither do I obviously.
I try explain again...
The slower I engage clutch to biting point the less it judders, quicker I engage biting point the worce it judders/vibrates.
Thanks for any advice please, time to get this sorted it's horrible.

#3: Re: Vibrates when clutch is engaged Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 5:40 pm ---- Should this get it fixed if it is clutch bearing?
Any ideas how much garages will charge to get it replaced?
What about the clutch plate?
Thanks

#6: Re: Vibrates when clutch is engaged Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 6:08 pm ---- So a whole new clutch just for thrust bearing? I don't know much about clutches but why is it when a part of a clutch does not function or work you need a whole new clutch kit...
#7: Re: Vibrates when clutch is engaged Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 23, 2011 2:45 am ---- for a good clutch kit and under normal usage i have yet to see any part of the clutch failed before the friction plate.

The time taken to dismantle it and replace a part would cost you more than a new clutch kit
