Hello name is Brian just joined a week or so ago, Just bought a used 06 G35 Coupe the clutch was slipping so i took it back to the dealer and they replaced the clutch, flywheel and throwout bearing, but now the clutch is letting out high, I drove an 03 G35 and it feels like it has a lot or starting ling power then mine and the clutch let out very low and was harder to engage, my clutch is very easy to engage however, I have tuns of power when I'm in 3 threw 6th gears, and I'm getting some kind of chattering noise when starting out in 1st gear like something is loose, so it's a stock clutch obviosely, any tips, thanks

 

To begin, Chatter is normal for a newly installed and thus unseated clutch disc. The height of the pedal, and thus overall pedal travel can be adjusted (there are two sensors that monitor pedal compression and release and they are threaded for adjustment). There is also a threaded rod that adjusts the amount of throw relative to the master assembly. This may also need to be tweaked a bit too. I would take it back to the dealer and ask them to adjust the pedal as this will help modify the point of engagement and release. Or, you can Google "G35 Service Manual" and do this on your own. You will find the applicable diagrams on pages 13-16 of the MT.pdf portion of the manual. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks,

 

Definitely DO NOT drive the car like you stole it until the clutch breaks in.

 

Thanks I will keep you updated appreciate all the info. I'm more of a do it your self kinda guy unless i don't know how then I do everything to find out how.

 

The only thing I found went up to the 05 G35's not 06, have any links relating to the 06?

 

Ok 3 months later the chatter is almost unnoticeable only if I let out the clutch to slowly I hear chatter, woohoo, I think I may like a stage 1 clutch better then the stock clutch, doesn't catch as well as some, just wandering if anyone knows if they put a stage 1 on the G35coupe 6MTs that have the track pack, I noticed that the 03s and the 04s that have the track pack the clutch seams to be more aggressive and a little harder to push the clutch in and also catches better. any ideas thanks
