Noticed clutch slipping going up driveway and heard a grinding noise so I pulled the trans and when I removed the pressure plate I found this. Do these look normal or is there something I should be looking at replacing?
Pressure plate Flywheel
do the flywheel and pressure plate look like they were overheated?
Maybe a little bit? I'm not sure. Doesn't look too different from any of the clutches I've taken off. Only one of those clutches was bad, the rest were taken off for other reasons.
It doesn't really matter though. The clutch was slipping, so you're going to need to replace it. You may be able to have the flywheel re-surfaced and re-use it but I'm not sure. I've always replaced them when I did them.
