Throwout Bearing just replaced 2 weeks ago
Looking for some advice...I just replaced my throwout bearing, pilot bearing, clutch and flywheel 2 weeks ago due to the throwout bearing failing. I didn't take it offroading and the same sound I had originally on the throwout bearing before it finally went, is already back. I went with the Certerforce throwout hoping for it to be better than the OEM. With all the threads online I see contradicting answers on the throwout bearing noise. With my 09 Jeep Rubi the noise goes away when I press the clutch pedal down. Now I am concerned it's something else since it's only been 2 weeks since these parts were replaced. Any ideas? I read in on post that they had to replace the input shaft which is very costly. Could it really be the throwout bearing again???

what your hearing is roll over noise
if the noise goes away when pedal is pressed . mine does this too , some make noise in neutral like something rubbing as it spinning freely . look up ( roll over noise ) youl find some will make this noise due to poor tolerances I guess . however dosent hurt anything . Looks like you wasted your money replacing it all . sorry 
bu least you upgrade all the parts from oem

If when you pull it straight back from neutral to that spot in fourth gear before it's actually in gear and the noise goes away then it's not your throw-out bearing; it's gear movement. My 15' doesn't have 3k miles on it and it makes noise like a bad throw-out. I drained the factory fluid and replaced it with Amsoil and it helped but once it's good and warm you can hear it again.

Sounds like it's temp/viscosity related which makes me think it's something other than the throw-out bearing. Keep us in the loop for sure if you get it figured out.

This is exactly what it sounds like...so I guess I'm gonna throw a national bearing in it and give it a try since this ceterforce one is evidently crap.
