Ozmodiar-X Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 okay, so about a week ago my clutch was fine, now it takes forever to accelerate, and the clutch is slipping on @$$ load. My friend thinks it not worth ordering the parts for a new clutch and stuff, because it might have been my flywheel going. Anyway to tell? i really hope its not the flywheel!

Snowman Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 If the clutch has been slipped very badly, you'll have to get the flywheel resurfaced, which costs like $60. It's really not that big of a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmodiar-X Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 so it wont need replaceing or anything? like the clutch parts will, but not the flywheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 That's correct. The flywheel has to be SEVERELY damaged to make it non-reusable. I highly doubt yours is that bad, unless there are tremendous grinding noises or anything like that while your clutch is slipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Takes alot to destroy a flywheel, really. I've done many clutches, and haven't seen to many flywheels that were bad enough not to be re-surfaced. And most of these were behind some seriously powered engines too. With that said though,, the one doing the machine work needs to know how to properly do the Subaru flywheel. Two seperate surfaces have to be surfaced, the disc surface and the pressure plate mounting surface. I think you'll be ok to get the parts needed to do yours, just get the flywheel done.
