thanks for checking out my posting. I have a 96 ws6 Trans Am 6spd. 70K miles, just got the car a month ago, about a week ago i noticed my trans is making a strange rubbing noise when shifting ,
this is how it goes,
1 no noise from stop, around 2200 RPM no noise pressing the clutch down, no noise taking out of gear, no problem slipping into second, however just as it slots into gear before letting out the clutch it almost sounds like a hand lightly rubbing a balloon, kind of a buzz vibration type, it happens in every gear when the rpms are higher than around 2k. so i don't think it's the syncros at all.
*ALSO* at an idle clutch in or out, there seems to be a light knocking from the trans as well, kind of sounds like a small pebble sporadically being flicked around in there.
at a stand still or just rolling when the clutch is down, if i rev it up it makes the noise as well.
anyone got the knowledge that i'm needing on this issue?
MY THEORIES
1 throw out bearing
2 pilot bearing
3 clutch worn
4 alien abduction and i'm just plain crazy
WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED THERE IS NO SLIPPING AT ALL EVEN UPHILL, i've been taking it real easy driving like an old man until i get this up to par.
thanks patiently waiting some help.
