oderuyter Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hey all, Been getting a nasty noise when running the car from cold for about the first 8 gear shifts at about 2.7k revs I get a nasty metal clatter that last for about 100 revs. Any ideas people? If it helps I've been told I have a noisy thruster bearing on the gearbox. I'm not a petrol head I'm a geek Just want to get this fixed so I can get on with my mods guilt free. Many thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhackyWill Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Dont use 2.7k rpm when cold..!! Could be something vibrating like a heat shield at that frequency.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonw246 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Sounds like thrust bearing, however I would still expect the noise to be there when warm. Could equally be a stretched chain, what does the idle sound like on a cold start? Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
