CDV deleted, now strange noise

[royson345]

Hello all!

Recently Ive done the CDV delete and installed the PRL SS clutch line. All was well and install went without too much hassle. Getting the clutch line off was a real PITA but got it done none the less. I noticed about a week ago a strange whistling/grinding noise coming from the driver front now. Car has only 3k miles on it. It only appears when the car is moving and seems to get louder/faster as the speed increases. Also the clutch seems to have a bit more noise when engaging. I was thinking maybe I didnt bleed the clutch enough and it still has air in it maybe? Or maybe when I put the air box back on after the install it didnt seal correctly?

What say you guys? Has anyone experienced anything like this before?

Faster sound as the speed increases makes me think it is coming from a rotational part. Since you were working on the driver side and removed the air box, I would check to make sure nothing is rubbing on the axle maybe?

That could be a possibility. Will deff look into that!

the cvd delete is the clutch line thing that slows clutch engagement?
is removing it a simple as replacing the clutch line?

It is slightly more involved but doesn't appear to be too difficult. Here is a write up I found, https://www.civicx.com/threads/removing-clutch-delay-valve.16339/
