Recommended Posts

anyone in the West mids have any knowledge of the Z gearbox ?

 

mine has developed an annoying 'machine gun' noise which disappears after a few miles

ive just swapped the clutch and flywheel thinking that was the problem but it wasnt..

OK thanks,

 

'07 GT manual on 26K miles, the noise is there on start up every time and goes after a few miles. Would have to check but im sure it doesnt do it once warm. No other issues with it

Neil,

 

If this is temperature related then I may be looking at the exhaust components as an exhaust blow or perhaps an exhaust manifold gasket blow can give off a machine gun like effect, however this usuually gets louder when the temperature increases.

Another thing to check is that you do not have a loose spark plug. ;)

 

Alex. :)
