Hi everyone. I have a Manual Transmission 2007 2.5L I4
Frontier with around 94,000 miles on it. I bought the
truck brand new and also learned how to drive stick in
it. The clutch just started making kind of a grinding
noise when it engages into first through fourth gear and
stops at about 3000rpm in each gear.
It worries me if I should be driving it until the clutch
is replaced.
Any advise what to check out? Could it be the throwout
baring?
Also how the heck do you replace the spark plugs? lol Do
I have to remove the darn intake manifold??
Thanks for any response in the future.

Definitely time to replace the clutch, and by the sound of
it maybe the flywheel, if it has been damaged too much.
As for the spark plugs I have no idea, I can honestly say
I've never even seen the 2.5L

Is it the clutch or trans. grinding??? Does the clutch slip
or is it difficult to shift gears? Does the clutch
completely disengage? Yes, on the intake removal.
