My car is making a sound that reminds me of driving an old truck. When I am on the gas above 30 mph I hear a groaning sound. Much louder when next to the divider on the freeway. When I push the clutch in it basically stops. Not a lot of variation, except it seems to get louder as a load increases on the drive train.
Previous experience tells me its the input shaft bearing on the 5 speed trans, or maybe the worse pilot bearing/bushing ever...... but being unfamiliar with these 5 speeds I thought I would ask if anyone had any input ?
Sometimes stick shift is very hard to move (comes and goes)
looked under car for bad u-joints / slop in drive line etc. / checked gear oil / one front wheel bearing is a little loose. I also recently learned that I have a LSD rear end.
Any thoughts would be helpful before I pull the trans
Thanks!
