AMV8 loud clack when we release the clutch
Discussion
How loud is the "clack"?
And how many times do you hear it? E.g. Just once on depressing/releasing the clutch?
The only vaguely "clack" type sound I get is a click that is the switch activating that turns the start button on. But it's not very loud and doesn't repeat unless I repeatedly operate the pedal.
If it's not that, you will be better taking it to a dealer as it does not sound normal as mentioned above.

always listen and always a hard clack in the circumstances, engine idle, without any gear engaged, and depressing / releasing the clutch too fast
"clack" is strong and listens to quickly release the clutch with the engine at idle, I talked to the official service in Spain and told me it was normal, I asked 1, owners of V8,(in Spain), and do try and tell me to be normal for them also do the same thing "CLACK" when they step and quickly release the clutch with the engine at idle.
... I will continue investigating,
if you want to test your V8, steps and quickly release the clutch is not a soft click, is a hard sound "CLACK" Clack "... every time you release the clutch too fast
Thanks and apologies for the inconvenience

Out of interest, why would you do this?
It may well be that it happens on some cars. I've never done that action with my car (any car I've had come to think of it) and can't think why I'd want to...?
Isn't it quite normal?It may well be that it happens on some cars. I've never done that action with my car (any car I've had come to think of it) and can't think why I'd want to...?
You come to stop in 1st gear with the clutch depressed. If it is going to be a long light, you place the gearshift in neutral and release the clutch to avoid needless wear on the throw-out bearing. Or are you talking about something else?

I put on Youtube, here we can hear what is happening repeatedly stepping on the clutch while the engine at idle.
sorry for the poor quality.
thanks in advance

Not right. You need to take it to a dealer or independent specialist to get them to look at it.I put on Youtube, here we can hear what is happening repeatedly stepping on the clutch while the engine at idle.

Repeatedly doing it in neutral, quickly pressing and releasing the pedal isn't normal IMO. Unless you have a nervous twitch that affects your overdeveloped left leg!You come to stop in 1st gear with the clutch depressed.

The circumstance you outline is normal. But how often are you going to do that in a lifetime? I reckon I could do a few hundred miles and only do it as often as the youtube clip above

what I want is to know if this is normal under the circumstances that expose.The circumstance you outline is normal. But how often are you going to do that in a lifetime? I reckon I could do a few hundred miles and only do it as often as the youtube clip above
maneuvering, always provides a good use of the clutch, we know that our clutch is as we would say, good sh.t.
thanks to all
