clutch post i am likely to be having a blonde moment! Where did the post ref clutch noise go, specifically the one that mentions the rattle when you turn it off without depressing the pedal? Mine is doing it very badly, gear change is also harder than it used to be and the pedal is alot heavier than it used to be, could do with knowing what to say to the dealers to get them to sort the revised clutch release plate as its been in already and apparently ' thats normal sir'................! It has also started making a noise, more pronounced when cold, in low 1st or rev when under slight load. (No its not the anti stall!) Dealer couldn't replicate this noise! Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop

I have already demo'd the noise to the guy who collects the vehicle who is one of their sales guys. not ideal but then its a trek to the dealers! what was the service action number? Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop

since a 1000 km I got a high pitch rattle (clink-clink-clink) coming from the clutch area, especially when the clutch pedal is depressed. The frequency matches with engine revs somehow. I imagine these are loose springs from the clutch plate. I do not have any other symptoms. Anyone got the same? this clutch assy is 4000 km since last change  Puma 110" SW ............................................................. Earth first. Other planets later
