Well here goes, hope someone is some help on this one.
P.O replaced clutch, throw out and pressure plate at approx 135-140,000 miles, Now has 220,xxx.
I have a "grind?" only going down into 2nd. If I press in clutch, release and press in again 2nd goes clean.
In the last couple of week I am getting a strange and unnerving noice in 3rd through 5th. When I press the clutch I get a whirring metalic sound. Usually occurs when I down shift.
Occasionaly the shifter locks itself up in second gear. cant shift out. wait a second. clutch again and it shifts.
Also I found that the two front bolts on the tranny mount had fallen out! One was sitting on the tranny mount one was gone. Two back mounts had worked out approx 1/4".
I took down the crossmember and the mount. Cleaned them up and reinstalled them with only two bolts. One front right one rear left. not the best situation. Approx 1/8 thread missing inside the transmission mount holes.
Any idea what the noise is?
Can any one confirm the bolt size for the tranny mount to tranny bolts?
Thanks
Kyle
