G/box / J-shaft Noise ?
Posted: Sun Mar 29, 2009 7:58 pm
I have an annoying noise coming from the rear of the g/box region.
I thought it was the rear g/box mount which was shagged but i replaced it and the baastard noise is still there.
Its only when i take my foot of the gas when the car is gear and rolling.
as soon as i accelerate of push the clutch in it goes away.
Sounds like something rubbing and squealing on the brakes, but its not coming from there and ive checked.
Im thinking its the uni on the jackshaft, or possibly a bearing in the g/box.
I have already replaced the oil in the g/box which i overfilled and it made no audible change in the noise. I have checked the uni and it seems fine.
??? Next step change the uni and change the oil in the transfer??
just looking for ideas guys, the car is a 96 1ltr maruti ute with a 4spd and 140,000 on the clock.
cheers
