TurboLoss Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Hi all, My Mk2 focus 2.0tdci 136bhp has a loud rattle noise at idle in neutral with the clutch pedal out. As soon as I press the clutch pedal in the noise goes. One other thing it's done recently is for the clutch pedal to stick half way when being released but I can pull it up with my foot under it, although it's only happened twice and not for a few days now. Not sure if this is related to the rattle or not. Apart from that there are no vibrations in the car, transmission or clutch pedal. Gear changes are smooth as well. Just wondering what other people's experience of DMF failure is before spending loads on a new one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLoss Posted March 28, 2021 Author Share Posted March 28, 2021 I've recorded a video where you should be able to hear the knocking noise. You can hear when I put the clutch in as that makes a high frequency rattle noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey1974 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Hi My 2007 2.0 tdci does the same The pedal sticks as well especially when changing from 2nd to 3rd when you put your foot down . Have been told it's the thrust bearing/ slave cylinder, it's been like it for 4 years now is gradually getting worse and done 178.000 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLoss Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 I did wonder if it was either the slave cylinder or bearing causing the pedal to stick, hasn't done it for a couple of weeks now though. Here's another video of the noise, you can hear it much better in this one. How much roughly have people paid for a clutch and flywheel?

Joey1974 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Will depend who you go too I was quoted £1000 from Mr clutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLoss Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 That's roughly what I've had so far, one place quoted 1200 but that seemed a bit steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey1974 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Will be cheaper if it's just the clutch kit been quoted just over £400 by an independent mechanic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLoss Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 That's not too bad. Unfortunately I think it's the DMF that needs doing too. In any case I think it's worth doing both whilst its apart to save potentially doing the job again in the near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac801123 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I did mine with a solid flywheel conversion 3 year ago and no issues only cost me £220. Did the job myself so saved a fortune. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
