   Hi all,
   Replaced my clutch and thrust bearing about a month ago as it was slipping, about a week later the thust bearing shatterd so changed the whole lot again. Now a week later I am getting a strange sound that I have been told is the thrust bearing what would cause this too keep going
   
   Thanks

   wrongly adjusted cable? using the clutch pedal as a foot rest, both are common causes of premature release bearing failure

   is it like a clicking noise when you press the clutch in?
