Drycounty Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Guys Ive got a horrible clonking/clunking noise coming from the engine bay when i press the clutch in 1st/2nd and when releasing my foot off the accelarator in 1st/2nd without touching the clutch. This is loud so can't be normal. Ive read that it could be a throw off bearing or something to do with the Transmission? If someone could shed some light onto what the problem could be that would be great as its been to Nissan twice now and they cant find a fault and said it will cost £££s to take it all apart.

Trev-the-Rev Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Is the noise the same as engine speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 If the noise is definately only there in 1st or 2nd gear then I would be looking at the tranny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 OT.... Thought it'd be funny to insert a pic or a 'tranny' here. Did a google search and was nearly sick. Safe search off is bad at times! Looks like the jokes on me..... Sorry I can't assist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drycounty Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Yeah only there in 1st/2nd that I can hear. The noise is worse when the car is cold. Clutch/Transmission I was thinking. If it doesnt clonk its a like vibrating noise. If you are very smooth when pressing the clutch (Taking 2 seconds to slowly press it the noise cant be heard). Jumping on the clutch and just releasing foot off the Gas in 1st/2nd gives off a loud clunk. Starting to annoy me now as i only had the drive shafts re greased because of clicking from the rear 3 weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
