I had a slight noise comming from the engine compartment area for a few weeks now. At first I thought it the rubber busted with my motor mounts that as causing the noise but it was not.
After listening to the to the noise..i narrowed it down to the transmission. The car is a 1999 Honda Civic Si with 150K. Never had a cluth replaced nor fluid replaced.
I noticed the noise which sounds like something is loose rolling around in the tranny...but i'm not quite sure if I would call it grinding. But when i pulled out in first gear you'd hear it then it goes away. I can shift and cruise in all the gears smoothly but as soon as replaced my foot off the gas petal with the car still in gear you'd hear the noise again.
I would set the car in neutral right after the noise starts up and there is no more noise and I'll just be crusing in neutral. I can shift in an out of sll gears smoothly and the does not seem like it pertain to a certin gear.
I'm hoping its the clutch/flywheel and not bad synchros...If anyone can help figure out this problem or suggest any place to have this look at let me know..thanks in advance
