damm tranny problems



I'd just pull the tranny and check.   In the amount of time it took to get a
response to this post it could of been on the ground and problem probably
solved.

I had a trans do this also in a cabriolet but didn't have the time or
another tranny to swap it out with so I ran it that way.  Lasted quite a
while until I actually swapped it.  When I dropped the trans, the clutch and
everything was fine and the noise went away with a different tranny.  HTH!
