Hi guys, i've been getting a strange noise underneath under acceleration, it comes from the front central/gearbox side, I think the clutch & box are all good, my suspicion is that it's very worn gear linkage's because when i accelerate there's a rattley noise, if I hold the gearstick hard in gear the noise stops. Anyway that's my theory, anyone else got any ideas? Cheers guys________________________________________ Team Diesel |

Do you have standard ones or uprated as standards have rubber to reduce noise. I had uprated and it rattled badly at certain revs |

there was a rattling out of mine a while back, i found there was a little kind of steel shield on top of one of the linkages towards the exhaust, im guessing to stop the heat melting the rubber, but it clipped off and i squeez'ed the clip with a pliers and put it back on and has been fine since!________________________________________ IF YOU CAN READ THIS IM STILL IN 5TH!!! |

I have experienced the same rattly noise. Most of it was removed by taking off your solid gear linkages packing them with copper grease and then refitting them.That lasts about 6 months, then you need to redo it. I've also thought about putting something around the rods like for example a big elastic band which will stop the rattle... but then that would melt as it gets bloody hot around there... ________________________________________ 200+ secret squirrels hiding under the bonnet with 4 wide mouth frogs... |
