There is a possibility that when I installed a new throwout bearing and clutch that I installed the clutch plate backwards as I hear what I would describe as a rubbing or brushing noise when I depress the clutch pedal....it does not sound like a typical throwout bearing noise.
But ....maybe the new release bearing is bad. I did not add any grease to it when installing.....my question is this, Is there a way to tell if the clutch is installed backwards without pulling back the tranny ???
