It’s only when I’m at 6,500 rev and change gear, it also feels like it slips an inch and the grabs.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Hi all, when changing heat at high RPM I get a metallic type noise for just a second on engagement of the clutch. I have recently installed the numeric shifter and cables, and was thinking it could be extra cabin noise/ vibration people talk about. Does anyone else with a numeric set up not use anything similar? Thanks Simon

POST 2Original post

The Numeric cable and shifter shouldn't emit that type of sound. The noise often reported is when Numeric cables transmit a droning harmonic drive-train sound into the cabin. It doesn't happen while shifting. Can you feel anything odd through the shifter when you hear the noise? Possibly an adjustment problem.

POST 3Original post

Hi, I don’t think it’s a cable alignment issue. The car drives/changes gear lovely. It’s only when I’m at 6,500 rev and change gear, it also feels like it slips an inch and the grabs. I’m thinking it could be a clutch/flywheel issue.

POST 4Original post

Does it happen in every gear? If somehow the replacement cables are affecting the synchronizers in any fashion (say via incomplete clutch disengagement) you need to remedy that ASAP.

POST 5Original post

Hi, Yes it happens in gears, only when really pushing on though. It's just a split second when the clutch engages.

POST 6Original post

That sounds like it could be affecting the synchronizers and wear on those is big bucks to fix.

POST 7Original post

Did you use the shifter centering tool when you installed the Numeric cables ? Also, did you use the old cables insulating sheath on the Numeric cables ? I'm not really clear on the sound you are experiencing. My Numeric cables make a mechanical sound when shifting, but it is more like a rifle bolt and is purely an effect of the rigidness (?) of the cables. They are a bit more mechanical almost like shift rods compared to the flimsy stock cables

POST 8Original post

Hi, I have the shifter assembly as well, so the alignment tool isn’t compatible. The car changes gear loverly. And have no issues getting into gear. I’m fairly capable with a spanner and confident i have installed them exactly as they should be. It’s a sound when the clutch engaging. My wife believe it’s in my head. But there is definitely a sound 🤣 it’s almost like a rubbing noise for 0.2 of a second when the clutch plate and flywheel meet.

POST 9Original post

Maybe not a cable issue then? Your Mrs. is right, but possibly throw out bearing? 200ms is quick

POST 10Original post

If this happens when you use the clutch pedal, what makes you think it's related to the numeric shifter ? sounds to me like you're describing slippage.

POST 11Original post

Hello, yes. I believe you’re correct and it was slipping. I changed the clutch and flywheel and it made a huge different. Deffo worth The 5 hours it took
