Well i have an Impreza UK turbo 1994 44000 miles had new clutch fitted at 39000 miles. It has recently started to judder on pull off and when letting the clutch out changing down gears, been back to the place that fitted the clutch and they say it sounds like the fly wheel is causing the problem. am I bein blagged????

scoobs generally have clutch judder, my last two have and its a common issue, I wouldnt really worry about it too much unless its really bad

thats cool, its an annoying common trait, but honestly 9 times out of 10 its just a "characteristic" of the scoob

Thinking about it i had alot of judder in my first scooby i had the flywheel skimmed and it was fine after

shouldnt judder if the flywheel has been skimmed or new one fitted.

They should have told you that you need to skim the flywheel before fitting to mate up correctly

Hmmm they might not be blagging me then would skim be enough or should i just get new lighter one???

dont know cause cant see condition of flywheel, but they should have informed you before fitting the clutch.

Now means clutch coming out unless you are prepared to live with the judder

It was alright after if i remember i think they recommended it. But that was on me first one.

ahhh superb so does this mean if i take the flywheel out skim it and put it back in it will be fine or is it too late

would have thought so if in good enough nick for skim or just replace it for new one either same weight or lighter for quicker acceleration

scooby0725

I would recommend a lighter one, thats what im going for on my new classic

gazskooby2006

Is there any places you recommend to get one from

I would reccomend you warm it up and then give it a high rev full bore standing start. This will clean all the dirt of the clutch surfaces. More often than not this will stop the judder. when i had the classic shape,i had to do this every couple of months to stop the judder.

Yup thats right owned by 40yr+ doctor from new full service history just had to buy it, the judder is the only thing that bugs me otherwise mint
