Clutch issue

Post by Blair4x4 » Fri Aug 25, 2017 7:03 am

Hi all, hope someone can give a little advice?
I've recently bought my Suzuki off-roader which already had a noise
which I think is clutch related? Or possibly a gearbox/engine bearing?
In neutral on starting there is a whining noise, on depressing the clutch
the noise nearly goes away?

Any advice would be much appreciated as I still haven't taken her off-road and I
Intend on going for an outing on 10th September, just to see how she performs.

Sounds like the clutch release bearing.
