Re: Fiat Panda clutch issues

Morning All.
Thank you for excepting me as a member of the forum.
I own x2 Fiat Pandas, 2012 models.
1) One standing on 97000km & one on 172000km.
I recently had a clutch failure and replace the clutch, pressure plate & trust bearing. (Vehicle has done 96000km)
After replacement of clutch i traveled 1000km without any issues.
Recently my panda started to vibrate when i travel between 90 & 100km/h,
When pressing the accelerator it start to vibrate, when i release it the vibration is gone.
I lifted the car up and checked all the bolts and nuts, enjine mountings etc.
I drain the gearbox oil yesterday and refill with new oil.
Vibration worse than before.

Any advice what else i can check.
Thank you in advance.

Regards
Charles from south Africa.

Hello Charles

Does your panda have a solid flywheel..
or a sprung Dual Mass Flywheel ?

DMF failure can often be accompanied by a Chirping sound.. as the engine is switched off

Hi, did you check on the engine supports?
A friend of mine replaced the clutch and then had a similar issue and they find out the problem was with one of the engine support.
