Hey guys can't find anything in this thread but I have a noise which I can only describe as a helicopter noise type rattle and once clutch is pressed in goes away only notice yesterday morning while it was warming up and didn't notice it once it was warm. Don't remember this problem when I was at Nissan anyone else seen this before. Clutch feels good no other problems though.
Cheers toad
The clutch release bearing carrier is rattling on the nose cone. When they are greased up you won't here it. Once the grease dries out it rattles again. Or, it's the bearing on that carrier. Could be either one.
Cheers mudski well ill see how she goes those boxes are a pain to remove so won't remove it just to grease and quiet a rattle
Yeah when I replaced the clutch in mine I greased the carrier up and was all quiet. Around two month later it went noisy again and haven't worried about it since...
As long as it's not the spigot bearing squealing away.
Don't believe it is as it's when the clutch isn't pressed in. Spigot works when clutch is being pushed itQuote:

Surely you could lube the carrier through the clutch fork hole with the boot removed? Maybe with some of that sticky chain lube in a can through one of those tubes that comes on a wd40 can? Just don't get it on the clutch... Got to be easier shot than pulling out the box, that's a painfull job!
As soon as foot presses tge petal it goes and if I put revs up slightly it goes and one warm it goes away hasn't changed since I've had itQuote:
