My 200tdi engine had been stood for a while before i put it into me defender.
The clutch plates had stuck together as a result and needed to be broken free once i got the engine running.
Its all free now and working, however, when setting off (In first) i get a noisey whiring/grinding noise at the bitting point until the clutch fully engages.......
Is this simply because of the plates were once stuck together and have made a rough/notchy surface? Will it become less noisey when the plates wear in and make a smother surface again?
Cheers, Scott
