Noisy 5th

Post by DBW »

Hey all, truck 2.8TD 96 LWB

160clicks,

I just bought the truck and im noticing 5th gear is quite a lot louder than the others? quite a wine.

Is this regular?

Im not stressed, just thought i would test opinions to see if im up for a box soon.

Cheers :D

Might be a bit ragged out from doing lots of towing or something else that loaded it up. 5th on my old MK had the same problem and needed to be replaced. When it came out not only were the bearings history, all of the hard facing on the gear teeth was worn. They are a small gear and didn't like towing stuff like horsefloats on the highway too much.
