Hey guys. Please help as my VR4 is my daily driver right now!!
-When I push in the clutch pedal i start to hear a grinding noise (coming from the bell housing it sounds like) and it gets louder the more i push the pedal in and the engine bogs until it stalls.
-I'm thinking my throwout bearing is seized however its an OEM throwout bearing with only 1k miles on it and its about a year old. I'm running an ACT 2600 clutch and i know the bearings are not made for heavy clutches, but it should last a lot longer than 1k miles.
-today i checked it again and i was able to fully disengage the clutch without the engine stalling but it was still making a grinding noise. after a couple more tries it went back to bad grinding and car stalling.
can anybody think of another option to my problem besides a seized throwout bearing or has anybody had this problem?
