Flywheel is bad. there should be Almost no movement left and right, or at least VERY little.


There should be NO movement up and down. That is exactly what mine is doing. Just disassembled the whole thing thinking it was just my pressure plate and throw out bearing that was bad.. as the flywheel is only 2yrs old.. but of course my luck the fly wheel was the one piece that was shot the most.

^What kind of symptoms ( vibrations, rattling etc.) were you getting while it was in the car, if any, that made you pull it and examine? Just curious.

I could initially hear the fingers on the pressure plate dragging and thought my throw out bearing was and pressure plate was the only problem but as I continued to drive it started to very rough engaging and disengaging of my clutch, I had to rev it more to get it out of gear. But when I started this project I did not think the flywheel was the problem. I don't have an actually video of my own fly wheel but essentially this was the difference between my old one and my new one.
