So my car makes a grinding noise under load but if I’m just coasting the “ grinding “
Goes away. We pulled the tranny and Noel noticed the throw-out bearing is spinning With ease and “grinding “ check out the video. Does this look right? I really hope this is the problem. I know I could just replace it but I want to be sure beforehand. I planned on putting in a loner tranny until mine was fixed . Hopefully it’s just the TOB ! Video is in post #2 @Dr Evil |

My vote is one of the carrier bearings is bad.
Does it make the noise in all the gears under acceleration? Like 914Sixer said, the TO bearing is only loaded when the clutch pedal is depressed. I would put the loaner trans in and tear into the noisy one. And keep Dr Evil's number handy. I can't remember if these have magnetic drain plugs. Drain the oil and look for metal. But surely you drained it before you removed it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) |
