i seem to have a clicking noise coming from the clutch just after i start the car

i push the pedal a tiny bit till almost take up point and it seems to stop

a little worried but im not sure if its anything major or just the cable needs adjusting

I have this noise lasts for about 6 seconds after you start car. My mechanics have said nothing about it and people seem to think it may have something to do with auto aerial. My car is automatic so it doesnt have a clutch but i still get this noise ive had it sinc ei bought the car 6 months ago - its done nothing to the performance or wellbeing of car.

nah had a bit of probs with the aircon lately so im guessing its more likely to be that - if it was outside under the engine i wouldnt imagine it would be so clear to hear. Definately more just behind the dash sound

it's just cigarret side black box which controls the Drirection of the wind... with aircon.

I dont know what exactly it does... but it makes clicking nosise when you start up the car and when you change the MODE wind directions etc..etc.

if you can stand the noise then fine... but it does no harm to the car!

cheers

i got the exact same prob with mine.....!!

i got it checked out by advan and its the clutch bearing.

Doesnt affect performance but makes your car sound a bit rough.

Mine makes a hissing noise when the clutch is in too.

It would cost a a fair bit in labour to fix it cause you gotta get to the clutch so i never get around to doing it.....

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
