Elantra HD (2006-10) :: Resistance When Shifting Into 2nd Gear Despite Clutch Being Fully Depressed

I bought a 2010 Elantra Blue in November. It has 1200 miles on it now, but as early as the 2nd week or so I became aware that there is occasionally resistance shifting into 2nd gear despite the clutch being fully depressed. It can also make a slight "crunching" noise after passing through the neutral position and fully into 2nd (though this sound is distinct from grinding, it's not the same as if you were grinding the gears). I've tried a million times to narrow down the cause (i.e. cold weather, low RPM shifting, high RPM shifting, slow shifting, fast shifting, gentle shifting, strong shifting) but every time I think I got it, and have corrected it, it happens again anyways.

Nissan - Versa :: 2007 - Clutch Feels Loose And Slight Grinding Sound When Shifting Only From Neutral To First Gear

Still chugging along!!

So, I haven't been the kindest car owner to my poor little hatchback. I do my best to get regular oil changes, but other than replacing the brakes last year, I have not kept up with most of the manufacturer's suggested regularly scheduled maintenance. The car has about 130,000 miles. Manual Transmission. My clutch feels a little loose, and I have been noticing a slight grinding sound when shifting (only from neutral to first gear).

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Clutch Slipping - Harsh Shifting - Loud Clunk Noise Into Gear 2 Then 1

New truck 11000kms ago thats done medium amount of work but nothing heavy or sustained for long periods of time. I get the feeling of clutches slipping especially when truck is cold but also when normal temps. Doesnt make any weird noises or anything. I can really notice the difference in torque if in manual mode being much better, but still not perfect if i stomp on the gas pedal and go through the gears in manual mode will still slip. Also is really harsh shift if i come to a halt in 3rd manual mode with the brake pedal depressed push minus button the truck makes very loud clunk noise into gear 2 then 1. Took it to ford they couldnt find anything ? Thinking of trying another dealer.

Golf VI R :: Clicking Noise When Shifting Down

Got my golf r about a month ago, currently has around 2000 miles on it, no mods..I noticed today the shifter makes a weird clicking feel (not the clutch) when shifting down, I hear and feel it most when going to 2nd..

It wasn't making any noise before or doing this at all. Doesn't affect performance from what I can tell but it is quite annoying, any thing I can do? Is this just wear and tear? Wasn't a gradual increase, came from nowhere...

Golf/GTI VI :: Shifting A Little After Redline - Clutch Slipping

I know some of us drag race our cars from time to time. I have a fair bit of bolt ons and I was just wondering what I would run so I had her out 3x yesterday. Impressed with my trap speed of almost 100mph on an 85-degree day w a stock intercooler but not my times, so much so that I don't even want to say them.

I was shifting a little after redline as quick as possible and leaving at like 3000-4000 rpm.

Is my clutch slipping or where am I going wrong?

the suspension is mostly stock as are mounts. I am sure I will get better with practice but this was a really sticky track so I really cant blame my tires

Golf/GTI VI :: 2014 - Clicking Noise When Shifting

My car is a 14' GTI and it's a 6MT. It only has 3k miles on it, but ever since I bought it I've noticed that I can hear a click sometimes when shifting or releasing the clutch pedal.

Is this just the normal mechanical noise? (it's my first manual). I mean the car shifts/drives fine, im just curious.The car is driving fine and everything and shifts perfectly fine. I am newish to driving a stick, but been doing it for a few months now with no major issues.here is a video I took (Car is OFF in this video and stopped, noise is the same when driving though). [URL]......

I'm probably being paranoid, but im not used to a Standard Transmission also, so im not aware what noise they should be making.I guess it's worth noting, that I also kinda hear it when releasing the clutch (but im also shifting at that time as well, and whats in the video is basically the same noise).The car is pretty much brand new......3k or so miles on it, so it seems......unlikely? but I figured i'd ask anyways.

Golf IV R32 :: After Installation Of Clutch Rattles Harshly - Won't Shifting

So I have a issue at hand with a clutch I purchased and fly wheel. I bought a Spec Stg 2+ kit and fidanza lw flywheel. As soon as I installed it the rattle seemed a little harsh and would change noise levels every time I would engage and disengage it. Then the shifting became a issue about 1000 miles in not being able to get it into gear (thats what she said) the clutch felt spongy and not solid. So I just recently pulled it out (real men dont pull out). Everything looked fine...odd.

SO I contacted Spec and they told me after inspecting the pictures that the self adjusting pressure plate was mis-adjusted and stuck and needed to be put into a vice to release the springs to put it back to normal. Hence why I had bad shifting eventually etc. Had less than 10,000 miles on the set up...fml. Spec has been extremely useful but I do not have the funds to buy another clutch from them. So im debating on putting it back into my car after resetting the pressure plate or just getting another clutch kit from a different company. I was also told to just go back to the stock clutch and pressure plate with the fidanza flywheel

Golf VI R :: Clutch Clicking / Popping Noise

Black 4 Door '13
37xx miles
Build date 07/12
No engine mods

I have had the clicking/popping clutch noise since I was breaking in the clutch but i thought it would eventually wear off. I have went through all the transmission threads and seen that a lot of people got it fixed having their clutch pedal assembly or master cylinder replaced.

Golf V R32 :: When AC Turned On Compressor Clutch Not Clicking

I have recently bought a R32 2008, and when trying to turn the AC I don't hear the AC compressor clutch clicking, the fans are running normally (radiator fans ). What should I check ? Someone told me that maybe it's a compressor problem, and another one said that if the refrigerant gas is low the clutch won't be engaged.

Golf/GTI VII :: Won't Shifting Into Gear?

So I just got home from a road trip yesterday, no problems on the trip. This morning I drive out of my neighbourhood, turn onto the highway and I think to myself, that's strange, clutch feels a little notchy ... and then I go to shift gears and it won't go into gear. Any gear. I push down and it just won't engage, it pops right back up. Had to walk a mile home carrying my kid in his car seat and trailing my 6 year old little girl. Now I'm getting it towed home so I can check the engine bay to make sure everything is cool. If everything is connected and I can't determine the issue then I gotta flash back to stock and hit up VW and have it towed over there.

Golf/GTI VI :: Clutch Clicking At Initial Travel / Wind Noise From Doors At Highway Speed

So far from reading up here is my list:

1) Water pump.

Its not leaking or making noise at this time.

2) Clutch clicking at initial travel.

Noticed this on the first couple miles.

3) Smelly A/C.

This is ongoing

4) Wind noise from doors at highway speed.

Noticed this also

5) Wastegate rattle

Don't hear any rattle, or I am not narrowing down the sound when it happens.

Anything else I should add?

Golf IV R32 :: Clutch Would Not Go Into Gear

Just bought my first r 32 recently , had previously owned a 20th anniversary GTI, anyway guy i bought the car from mentioned the awd system was not working , recently was driving and clutch would not go into gear in addition to the haldex or awd not functioning . The clutch also kinda "stuck" to the floor .. Also I noticed some fluid on the undercarriage the day I brought it home . I'm pretty sure the car was beat on but there aren't many available up this way , and honestly I know I'm prob gonna spend some to get her road worthy again , Also felt like the car was operating in rwd for some reason and traction control light is on.

Golf VI R :: New Clutch - 1st Gear Stuck

Car: 2012 Mk6 Golf R
Mileage: 43,000 km
Software: UM stage 2 loaded

Related mods:
- diesel geek short shifter
- Emmanuel design, Sachs SRE stage 2 SMf clutch kit
- Tyrol sport deadest rigid collar kit (probably not related)

Background info:
Clutch installed at 40k km.
0-500km stop and go traffic
500-505km punched it bc a 350Z pissed me off*
506-1200km highway and not very aggressive twisters
1200-3000km hwy and city mix

First 0-500km I babied the clutch. No issue
501-505km I punched it a bit hard. Felt great. No issue
506-1200km hwy there, no issue. Closer to the 1200km mark the issue surfaced
1200-3000km was able to repeat the issue and adjusted diesel geek ss and re-bled the clutch in attempt to resolve it

Issue:
- from dead stop, 1st gear gets locked in at 2-4k rpm
- either I rev up beyond 4k, drop below 2k rpm to unlock it
- if I man handle n yank it out of 1st, gears grind
- only happens when the car is fully warmed up and fully running at optimal temperature for at least 10-15 minutes
- diesel geek ss readjustment
- re-bled the clutch (no topping off the clutch lines)

Issue was improved, however, I'm experiencing this locking issue again. Less frequent and less predictable. Attempted to replicate the issue, only happens if it's stop and go traffic-jam speed. Was unable to focus on an rpm range.
