Some advive needed.
Ok so it started with the clutch slipping.
Booked in to local garage who i know for new 1
When i went to collect it there was a clatter clatter clatter sound.....
this only happens in neutral @ tickover with clutch up (engaged)
when clutch pressed it stops
if revs are increased when in neutral by only 50 to 100 rpm it stops
it i put transfer box in neutral and main box in gear it stops.
when driving theres no noise.
it sound to be coming from gearbox or bell housing.
didnt take car as complained to garage. they pulled out the box again and checked all the new clutch. i was there and checked with them. All seems ok.
The guy at the garage says he thinks its a gearbox shaft or shaft bearings that are worn and nothing to do with what he has done.
He says that disturbing the box could have cause the the problem come to light.
he also suggested that using a thicker oil than semi 75w90 would help.
also he said if i get another box he will fit it for free.
has he done anything that could cause this eg letting the box drop before pulling the shaft clear
or is it a dodgy clutch kit or bearing
Plus if i get a new box is the 2.4 and 3.0 the same main box.
Any advice and help greatfully recieved
Thanks in advance
