release bearing
 

Ok 4 months ago I noticed a noise coming from my release bearing so I changed it but it when bad again I’m on my third one now and it just went bad again. I’m lost any advice I’ve checked the fork and it was ok. Also I have a brand new act ZM8-HDMM clutch kit. it has 31000 miles and it’s a 2004, thanks.

Talk to Charles R. Hill....he has some upgraded all metal release bearings that will be the cats ass :)

Just contact Charles at BHR. FTW!!! I've seen the new bearing and it looks very nice.

wow,

metal inside vs plastic inside you decide!!!!

beers :beer:

Cold weather has prompted my throw out bearing to begin squeaking.

Clutch engagement still seems normal.

Is the noise normal for the RX-8?

Sounds like the OP replaced the bearing but still has the noise.

^there is your man right there!!!
