98 Pathfinder clutch growl

Nov 06, 2004 4 Replies

My girls 98 4wd Pathfinder with 106k has a nasty growl to it when the clutch pedal is depressed, worse when its cold. At work the other day, I heard a car start, then heard the exact same growl come from an Xterra, so I'm thinking this could be a problem some folks on this group may have encountered. Im thinking throw out bearing, but would love to hear from others that may have encountered this symptom.


Throw-out bearing. Trans has to come out to replace it.

Agree, throwout bearing. Since the trans has to come out, think about replacing the clutch and pressure plate.
