Hello I got my clutch changed an flywheel on a corolla d4d and when you lift clutch in first or second a bit quick it sort of clunks it doesn't do this if you lift slowly. I also get the same noise if I floor it in first as it moves it clunks quickly as it jolts forwards. It is a solid mass flywheel now instead of dual car drives lovely if anything better than it ever has but the noise has me worried. I don't mind if it's the normal for a solid flywheel to make that noise a bit longs it's nothing bad.

The car does want to take off quickly now when lifting clutch but I don't have any vibrations etc or anything too weird just a clunk noise. This happens if I rapidly lift foot off accelerator in 1st or push it down quick in first as well as when lifting clutch up a bit quick. I can minimise it by driving lifting clutch slowly etc and not taking off full pelt in 1st.

Sounds like a big solonoid valve opening if that makes sense just a single clunk

It may be shunt TBH it drives and goes into gears fine other people with same model on 80k miles on a solid flywheel no issues reported

It was quite an expensive set about 480 for flywheel and clutch car drives better than it ever has just weird noise I can reduce the noise or make it disappear when I don’t drive like a knob haha. Hopefully it’s just the single mass flywheel being less dampening. It’s a 12 year old car didn’t see the point in spending stupid money on a dmf for it and then having to replace the dmf again when it fails. The old dmf and clutch were absolutely cream crackered

I think one of my engine mounts is naffed has bonnet up and got someone to pull towards and backwards on the clutch lifting and the engine rocks a bit much and looks like it's knocking on stuff. I could be wrong.

driveshafts are knocking happens when steering each way a little. Can see them move and knock when you pull away. Wasn't doing this before the guy did work. Weird.

I did he got defensive then stopped answering me. How much play should driveshaft have back and forwards if I reach under and pull the shaft near wheel end it moves a little each way but also makes a metal clunk similar to what it's making when pulling off or going over a pothole.

Found it put it on mates ramp jolted it in gear with handbrake on bloody wishbone nut was loose so lucky really. Nothing else jolting or knocking so was only one loose nut taken it out for a spirited drive over some st roads no horrible noises so that's sorted.
