Hello everybody , I just finished my gearbox and installed it , it makes a kind of whine on 3-5 gears , it’s almost inaudible , thankfully the camera catches it . I don’t have any issues with the sound it’s almost impossible to notice unless you know when to listen . I am just concerned on if it might be something I can fix , or if it may give up without warning . It is noticed when foot is taken off the gas

Here is a vid : https://youtu.be/01goQwgHWoI

I would watch closely for more flaking. If it is causing more flaking it will ruin your new bearing.

Thanks for your answer
How Much flaking is acceptable ?
