-Neil- 0 Posted March 17, 2009 If i have the key on ignition(dont actually start the car) after a few minutes ill get a weird virbration kinda fart that lasts for about 1-2 seconds then goes away, i thought it was air going through the water pump as ive just done my matrix, but i had my foot resting on clutch once and i felt it. Its also happened whilst driving aswell. its kinda like a sound of a numatic drill froma workman on a much much smaller scale! My brake fluid is low (handbrake light comes on when booting or going round corners), is the clutch hydrualic? What could this be? its a 1993 VR6.

mattnorgrove 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Might be ABS related? Try starting the car with your foot on the brake pedal, see if you feel it any stronger. Think I remember reading that was part of the ABS startup procedure. But I'm probably wrong... Sure someone more technical will be along shortly to advise... :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The brake pedal should shudder when you first start the engine. But not sure if you'd feel that through the clutch pedal. Worth doing what matt says though neil.

Toad 0 Posted March 18, 2009 My brake fluid is low (handbrake light comes on when booting or going round corners), is the clutch hydrualic? Ignoring the vibration, yes the clutch is hydraulic, and the take off pipe is relatively high in the brake fluid resevoir. And seriously, "booting it" when you know you've got low brake fluid???? :cuckoo: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
