[embai883]

hi guys,

i have this weird random noise on my gtt recently, it is like a high pitched and whinning noise when the car is in neutral, it goes away when clutch is depress,it sounds like it came from the transmission area... throw out bearing going out ??? or gearbox problem..., i try observe for a few more days...

the car had only travelled 58000km and i assume that shouldnt happen, this also sort of happen on my old gt-four st185 but doesnt affect anything though still engage properly and stuff....

or izzit i sux in driving manual

are these common???? those with the knowledge pls help

yeah sounds like thrust bearing

Does it do it when in gear and driving along? Release bearing noise is usually with clutch pushed in and goes away when you release it

Try moving release fork with hands and see if that changes the noise.
If release bearing is semi-seized it will grind against pressure plate making bleeding ears noise even if you are not really pressing it.

so it goes away when you push the clutch in yes?
Could be input bearing on its way out. Dont know what those boxes are like, but have changed on a few cars of similar mileage.
If its when you push clutch in then release bearing as above.

hmmm... input shaft bearing... hope it is not something very bad cause the sound is not present anymore....
