2018 GT350 clutch noise

[ron9630]

Hey I own a 2018 GT350 with a mcleod rxt clutch and I have this noise, is it normal? Have you heard of it?
Happens when lifting the clutch pedal in first or second, also happens when rolling and going on and off the gas at low rpm, it is way louder but doesnt sound as loud on cam.
Ignore my leg movement had to readjust as camera was in the way lol

I've never heard anything like that.
But I wonder, why do you wiggle your foot around? It could be the cause of the noise. It's certainly not normal to do that and there's no need to do it.
Try shifting without all that foot motion, just press straight down on the clutch and release it the same way.

oh that was because the camera was in the way so I had to readjust haha, I usually do it normally and press it all the way down and release the same way..

Assuming you still have the original style drive shaft. I would look at the carrier bearing, cushion for the center bearing first. It can bounce around a bit on start up and then center itself with speed.

A build thread, vehicle profile could also be helpful in diagnosing your problem. We could then see what you have done to your car (cool stuff) and have an idea what parts may have already been swapped out.

It happens even after driving awhile, not only on startup.
I got the clutch installed awhile ago maybe 6-8 months, and always had the sound.
since then have had a new transmission with throwout bearing installed, mgw shifter, SW catted headers, JLT intake and tune and some other minor stuff

Maybe startup was not the best choice of words on my part.
What I meant was when starting to move from a stop.
If the clutch is fully engaged, your foot off the pedal and the sound is there when you accelerate from slow speeds. The problem may not be the clutch. Again, look at the center bearing and rubber support pillow.

I remember reading about a bunch of issues around the McLeod RXT in the GT350. I know they were one of the most trusted GT500 clutches, but in the GT350 they seem to be plagued with issues.
