but was your axle making a rubbing sound when the car was stopped? cuz i dont think it could.

i popped an axle out before, i leaked alot of fluid, lol.

 

i remember that. all us n00bs thought you broke your car. lmao.gif

 

lol, that was like a million years ago, i was like SHIT, there was SOO much fluid on the ground.. o man, i freaked, then i popped it back in and drove the car like 1.5 qts low until i boosted lol.

 

^^ did you notice the car shifts easier and grinds less with no fluid?



That's kinda an odd problem you're having. does it do it in each gear? are you able to check the fluid level now?

 

ill check the fluid level tomm.. the gears have never ground, but it seems like its a lil harder to shift, but NO grinding.. i duno. im hoping its just a low fluid level, cuz i aint pulling the trans off again..

the ONLY time i notice anything strange is when im sitting there idling and the clutch is let out, i can just hear like a rubbing sound almost like the clutch is engaged but not in gear, its weird.. i could try and get the noise on camera but the engine noise may override it.

 

Is it more like a scuffing sound? When it is making the sound push in on your clutch pedal and let off real quick. Does it go away?

 

yes it does go away the minute i push on my clutch.. sometimes it goes away and sometimes its there..

 

Mine does that occasionally too. I know I need a new clutch soon though. You already have a new one so I dunno.

 

try adjusting it if your fluid is fine. i swear if you break it im not breaking another pry bar. lol. jk but yea try adjusting underneath your clutch pedal. did you adjust it when you put the new one in? i cant remember.
