    The clutch is due very soon, and i think the rattling noise that sounds like a loose egsaust sheild is comming from the clutch/flywheel. I have read on the search about the grease and seal going wrong in the flywhel. What is the fix is it a matter of replacing the seal and grease or is a whole flywheel unit needed. Thanks for any responces.

    Hi Charlie. The sound could be from other things but if it is indeed the flywheel rattling around, then it can be rebuilt (basically repacked) if the phenolic internal parts are not yet melted. If too far gone then a new flywheel is in order. Have a good one.
