Simon Dart Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Uh o, sounds bad. If I boot my lightly run in (54K miles)1996 1.4K SS 6speed in lower gears, mostly 2nd & 3rd I get a horrible metal on metal rotating graunchy sound. Please someone tell me its the clutch release bearing and not the gearbox. Help me sleep tonight. Cheers, Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 sounds more like the gear box. i think if it was the clutch it would be there all the time. not just in second and third, probably to late but have you checked the gear oil . fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Dart Posted September 17, 2002 Author Share Posted September 17, 2002 Fred, you've guessed what I'll be doing tonight then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Dart Posted September 18, 2002 Author Share Posted September 18, 2002 There was 1.4L of oil in the box so looks like a rebuild then. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
