Brand New Clutch slipping :/

[OwaisYunus1]

Got it .. goahead get the whole assembly dismantled and see the roughed up clutch marks on fly wheel again, it is misaligned for sure.

Will get it opened within this week inshaAllah.

@Xulfiqar. Some input in this regard would be appreciated

It seems to me,clutch assembly had not tighten properly during assembling.

could be the fault of a small lock which holds the bearing in its position.
happened with me in baleno

sounds like a bad case of clutch slip, check the pressure plate. Im believing that is was replaced with a NEW GENUINE PART. Secondly check the rubber pipe going to the clutch slave cylinder it can act like a slow release valve when it swells up with age. Its supposed to be replaced at about the same time brake rubber pipes are replaced.

When buttoning it up, use a coat of heavy moly grease or genuine CV joint grease on the input shaft splines of the gearbox, This will ensure the clutch plate is free to slide on it. A very very thin application of the same grease on the starter ring gear also helps elongate starter life and prevents rusting too.

Yes, the flywheel was faced before installing.

The flywheel was faced before installation. I took it to the machinist myself. Around a mm was shaved off.

you have to get a new/kabli flywheel. its not going to work. whenever i got such things worked upon by a machinist, they never worked correctly.

The lock that's made of a wire? Was the lock interfering with the clutch engaging completely?

Yes, all the parts were genuine toyota brand new parts. Is the pipe swelling up easy to identify by looking at it or does it have to be measured and compared to a new pipe? Around when are the rubber pipes supposed to be changed? Because the pipes havent been replaced ever. The mechanic did apply grease to the shaft splines but not to the starter gear though I'm not sure which brand of grease he used.

agreed.

But the last time the clutch was replaced (~150k km back), the flywheel was machined back then too and it worked like a charm. I do understand that facing it the second time may have thinned out the flywheel but since the machining was hardly a mm, do you think it would matter considering the fact that a new clutch is alot thicker than a worn out clutch and that 1mm would be compensated in the thickness of the new clutch?

The brake fluid rubber pipes are supposed to be changed at about a 5 year or 8 year interval depending on the use of the vehicle and if the brake fluid was regularly changed every year.
