Topics covered: Clutch, Rust, Warranty.
Mileage: 72,000 miles.

Asked on October 28, 2011

Car emits a whistle (bit like a Cricket's noise) with clutch disengaged. If I press the clutch just an inch, it dissapears

Thanks for any help you can give. If you have expertise in this area, I also wondered if the problem might be covered by the Hyundai five-year warranty?

Thank you

This will be a faulty clutch thrust bearing, the box will have to be removed to fix this problem, if left it will get worse to the stage that the bearing may seize.
