Car has been running fine. Recently, there is a sound coming from the right side; sounds similar to a brake pad rubbing against a rotor. Appears at cruzing speeds and goes away when the clutch is pressed in; it comes and goes.
Here's what already been done recently: new flywheel, PP, clutch, TO bearing and pilot bearing. Then Dr Evil looked at the tranny and replaced the pinion gears and 2nd gear dog teeth. The sound is not loud, barely notice it, but it's annoying. Anyone heard this sound ?; sounds just like the brake pad slightly rubbing on the rotor when adjusting. |

....hmmm....
I have a similar sound and I found out what it was a couple of days ago. When I did the rear suspension and replaced the trans mounts ... somehow I must have broke one of the motor mounts. When I hit it hard the motor shifts a little and when warm the back of the headers hit the heat shield and valance.....makes kind of a squeaking sounds like a brake pad indicator. Might have done something similiar? Check the back end Jim for something rubbing Jim. |
