#5037, "Yeah...figured out TOB rattle..read if having problem"
So I posted earlier about this stupid TOB rattle and I replaced the bearing 2 weeks ago and it was happening again. So I was taking a look at the fork and bearing by just removing the slave cylinder and peeking around inside. I had my wife start the car and was feeling the fork for vibrations...none. Didn't feel like the bearing was bad. I first suspected the rattling was the fork or bearing because I broke the tabs off the bearing. But this confirmed that the noise was not the TOB. So I was thinking what else could it be. I remembered when I pulled the tranny last time that the starter plate bolts were kinda loose. So I tightened them up, easy cuz I didn't replace the cover. THAT WAS IT!! No more rattle. I'm gonna get some Locktite and make sure they don't come loose again. Hope this helps anyone having this problem.
