New Clutch/Niello's the best
I've had some noise from time to time when I let out the clutch. I have mentioned it to the service advisors at Niello in the past but they couldn't hear the noise and pin point the problem which didn't surprise me. I took it in to have a check engine light looked at (O2 sensor) and mentioned the noise and they looked at it again and without any drama said that it need a whole new clutch assembly and flywheel as described in a service newsletter. No drama, just great service. Here were the symtoms: a slight metallic scraping noise when letting out the clutch and some rattling from the engine that could be heard from the outside. The clutch actually worked very well with no slipping. When I bought the car in 03 I knew there would be problems because of the new design so I'm not really upset with the inconvenience.
Thanks Niello
Thanks Niello

I agree w/ the Queen (as always). You should post this story on the GCM board as well. Since we're local, we have a section about Northern CA dealers. Some of the experiences at Niello have not been to great (including my own, but I'm not here to complain!)
GCM forum - Niello Section
Thanks for the story. Do we know any more about the clutch issue? anyone else have any issues. None to report for me, but I'm a 2004 model - 09/03 build date!

Lucky you.... My car has had the same problem... My dealer told me It was a noise caused the oil catch can I had installed... ( many posts on this under cluthch noise in this forum )They had already worked on the car once for the issue, then just prior to the return visit( since it had been fixed) i had installed the catch can. Now they say thats what is causing the noise...
