Clutch sounds like a rusty swing set.....need help!
I have a 2003 mustang gt vert, with around 82k on the dash. My clutch has recently started sounding like a rusty swing set, or a squeaky metal gate every now and again. It didn't worry me till now, Then just today it started to sound sorta like when your brakes start to grind or if you rub like two break pads together and get that sorta ceramic against ceramic sound. It doesn't do it constantly mostly on cold mornings when she first starts up.
Maybe like the pressure plate is not fully disengaging? If I push the clutch in maybe 4- 6 inches it seems to go away. When I fully release it, it will start again. I don't think it's the throw out bearing. The thing is it will do it whenever the hell if feels like it.
On a side note if I fully push the clutch down it sounds like the pedal is grinding against something.
Maybe a loose cable ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can get a sound clip if anyone thinks it mint help haha..
Thanks in advance fellow stangers ;-)
