CK25 Short high pitch screech noise

[Greenecho]

Hehehe, I've also gotten a similar noise that mostly comes on when I use reverse but at times with no HST pressure. If I push on the clutch enough to take up the freeplay then the noise disappears. It's quite loud and sounds like a pulsing screech.

Comes and goes. I imagine it being a throwout bearing being scraped by the fingers on the pressure plate.

I adjusted the clutch to spec, really just verified it, and no change in the screech. Everything works fine.

HB...

I was playing with the tractor this weekend and I think you may be on to something. I suspect it's like you said: "throwout bearing being scraped by the fingers on the pressure plate." Or, it could be the throwout bearing going bad. You'd hardly think it would go out so soon, I rarely use the clutch. It did quite down after I engaged the clutch down (some).

Thanks again. We'll be keeping an ear open if it gets worse.

Maybe the lack of use is the cause. Kinda like noisy brakes. The fact that the noise immediately stops when you take up the clutch freeplay (no real pedal pressure) tells me that it must be the pilot or throw out bearing. Is the thrust bearing you speak of the same as the throw out bearing MI?
