F-Sport Quick shifter $189
F-Sport Clutch $471.71

If you think the problem is from the flywheel, swapping the clutch is not going to do any good.......

OK. I never had bucking, just a rattling sound when taking off in first.

I really hope it works out for you. You might also want to consider calling corporate if your appointment on Thursday doesn't work out.

There is no way ill pay that. I have had the car for 5 days!!!! Its an 06 with 26k on it. How long do these clutches and flywheels last. I dont think lexus made a car that needs a new clutch every 25k, I dont care how bad the tranny is. Its crazy

The clutch rattling is more apparent to me when I start in 2nd. The instant just before I release my foot off the clutch, the grinding sound appears and disappears when my foot is off. I'm in the same boat as you, I plan to keep the car for a long time...

Good luck and tell us what you find out from the dealership.
