Tranny+clutch=noise

hammerhead · Jan 1, 2006

My 92 has developed a low groaning noise when shifting between gears? (kinda like a groaning whiring sound when the clutch pedal is pushed in.
and stiff shifter engagement, any thoughts??
Thanks

What do you figure a shop will charge for the repair?

You could try bleeding the hydraulic system at the bleed nipple located on the driver's side just behind the bell housing. Use a 1/4" flare nut wrench. If it's OEM, your '92 has an internal slave/throwout bearing, so the tranny needs to come out to replace the part. Cost is anywhere from $60-$90, but it makes sense to get best quality (NAPA). The job is doable with floor jacks and stands in a driveway or garage for a person with basic mechanical skills if you don't want to spend for a pro. Search here for good tips and writeups. Good luck.
