Title: whirring from gear box
Post by: Rx-7 turbz on March 14, 2007, 06:49:35 PM
got a "whirring" noise coming from the gear box. When the pedals down the whirring stops, in gear or out of gear but once raised it starts. Theres no slipping of the clutch just this noise......... is it the clutch release bearing or any ideas?
