so yesterday i installed a new master cylinder. after installing i bled the master cylinder with the plunger beneath the clutch pedal. i used the mityvac tool to bleed the line and it was a piece of crap and fell apart on me the first time i used it so i gave up and had it towed to the mechanic.
i brought it in with the clutch making a creaking sound and it also grinds when the clutch is released/pumped while shifting(which is the reason why i replaced it).
would air being trapped inside the master cylinder cause the throwout bearing to not seat properly or something, causing it to grind or make a screeching sound? the screeching sound happens when the car is off. clutch is less than 6 months old.. any ideas?
they say if this doesnt work than the throwout bearing is probably bad.. but wouldnt it squeak while releasing the pedal? cause it doesnt squeak...
