#41, "Tranny making grinding clunking noises!!! Help!!" Mar-01-03 06:34 AM by extreme97nt
It seems that when my trans is cold it makes grinding clunking noises. It is only when the clutch is engaged in or out of gear. The noise goes away when I push in the clutch. It also seems to get quieter once it has been driven for a while. I put in a new clutch/throwout bearing a couple months back. (used bg syncroshift as reccomended by the mitsu dealer) Any one have an idea???? TI

Yeah, that BG isn't probably the best thing to use... If your car starts slightly "jerking/pulling" forward in neutral, then you can figure you have a few hours of driving before you cant shift anymore

My car was doing the exact same thing -- same situation new clutch / throw out bearing -- then i switched out the BG -- it doesn't handle cold weather well -- go get the MITSU Fluid -- my noises are all gone.

Maybe God doesn't like you...did you run over a squirell or something? j/k There's a pretty easy fix to this problem...mine has it too... 1) don't drive it immediately after starting it, EVER--let it warm up a minute or two 2) if its cold, push the clutch in (the sound should go away) and wait a few minutes until the engine warms up..the tranny won't exactly be warm, but it'll be warmer..then just drive very gently for a minute and it should go away...
I HATE doing this, but i'm afraid i'm gonna chalk up the ratllin' tranny to one of those "noises" you just have to turn your stereo up to and ignore
