#7291, "RE: Manual Transmission Noise" In response to In response to 3
The clutch fork uses two very small, very brittle metal tabs to locate the TOB. They tend to break if you're not extremely careful. they also tend to break if you touch them. If they're missing, the TOB is not held securely to the fork and will rattle.
if it bothers you that much, you're going to need to pull the trans, replace the fork, and reseat the TOB without breaking the tabs. if you break a tab, buy a new fork and repeat.
See why we tend to just live with it?
