Kind of sounds like the A/C clutch. Mine went out a while ago. It mostly does it under power and occasionaly when at idle. Probably not in your case, hope the tech finds out whatever it is.

service has identified the sound as the cluthch assembly. i will let you know when i drive it.i will ask them how to properly break the new 2.3 duratec parts in.then post results.thanks
I understood the first part, but then you lost me on the second.. lol [;)]

Hmmm another clutch story, lol some of us are very used to reading about these. It's a well known fact the SVTF suffers from premature clutch failure or just clutch issues period. I hate to hear this has happen to you as well now. Please do keep us posted.. [:)]

finaly recieved car back after 1 month.tech could not find the noises for a week,got wrong parts for 4 days,noticed motor mounts shot,waited for those,found steering rack problem and replaced,and finaly found axle bearing noise.replaced clutch,flywheel,pressure plate. all waranty so cant really complain. car drives nice with lots of grab and more strurdy feeling to it .[:eek:] [burnout] any questions give me a shout.




dealer told me that the cause of the clutch noise was the throwout bearing.the spines on the flywheel are stronger and the clutch is bigger along with the pressure plate.



VIVA LA SVT!- if svt goes down for good they better bring SOMETHING sufficient enough or i have my eye on the evo MR! or dream car lotus elise!
