Default Anyone with a Textralia please respond
Had my Tex for about 44k miles now. Its making noises when I sit there in neutral at idle. Goes away when I push in the pedal. Also it seems to engage higher ( the pedal) now. Is it on the way out? Anyone had a Tex failure? I dont notice slipage at all when I'm rolling but I'm not sure on the launch.

Sounds like a throw out bearing going bad. Did you replace it along with the clutch?

Yes it was all new. The Tex kit comes with new everything. IF I had a bad trans mount for a long time would that effect the life of it?

No not a mount but if you ride the clutch alot it will kill the T/O bearing.
