Question My clutch...
Reply
Posted 2008-05-01, 11:38 PM
Alright, I have a 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS with the 420A (non-turbo)

Within the last few days, it started with this grinding sound. Also, every once in a while, (so far 4 times total) it would make this loud cracking sound that sounded like wood. But it still drove fine. Also, the front of my car lurches upward as though the engine is trying to come out from under the hood. I am going to get it looked at for the clutch because it has the same clutch from the day it was born, so after about 12 years, I am sure a new one is in order anyways. But I was just wondering if maybe someone else has had any problems like this, because this is my first stick trans car.

Also, there is quite a noticable loss in power, and the grinding sound only starts up when I am not holding the clutch, in neutral or in gear.
