I just got a McLeod Clutch and fidanza flywheel installed and now that My 500 mile break in period is up Ive been hitting it pretty hard.

I just notcied while in the drivethrough at mc donalds the clutch will chatter when im in neutral with the clutch out. When I push the clutch In, the chatter stops.

Is this something I should be worried about?

My 04 GT does the same thing. I just got the transmission rebuilt by Ford with a new clutch assembly and it still makes the same noise you are describing. I have went to numerous stealerships and they all say the chatter is normal. My car runs normal but it has that aggrevating noise. POS Tremec 3650.

My throwout bearing has about 2000 miles on it and has made the noise since the day I picked it up from the dealership.

If i wanted to get a new throwout bearing how much would that cost?

Is this something that would get progressively worse if I dont fix?
