Clutch Release Bearing Help Please

[Sonic1]

Hello all,i wonder if you could give me some info please.

As a previous post about my clutch

When the car is in neutral with my foot of the clutch the release bearing sounds very dry and whines,when i put the clutch peddal to the floor it stops and all is quiet and ok.goes in gear ok and no other issues with the clutch etc.

I am going to buy a release bearing on its own and replace it,any idea where is the best place to buy one and at what cost?

Secondly do i have to take the clutch and preasure plate off to change it or is it attatched to the actuator fork in which case the clutch plate etc doesnt need to be touched.

Thanks

Hi mate. I have a brand new clutch bearing at home if you want it be cheaper than getting one from lexus. And yes it is attached to the fork so you don't need to remove the pressure plate afaik

Hi thanks for that i have sent a PM to you.

Trying to get my head round how it works!

So if the clutch pedal isnt pressed the bearing spins and once the pedal is pressed the bearing stops turning as it is pushing against the preasure plate and it is still spinning once you select a gear and release the clutch pedal whilst driving

Alos what other parts will i need? exhaust gasket etc? how long will it take to do?

Thanks for all the help i dont want to go into it half cocked.

Thanks
