Ok so im driving up to Nj to go back home for the weekend from NC. Im goin up and everything seems fine. No problems. I get back to NC couple days later and in all gears under about 3k i have a heavy drivetrain vibration. if i keep the car at a certain rpm in any gear it has a grinding kind of sound..also when i take a left turn i feel like the wheels/drivetrain are making clicking sounds. anyone kno whats wrong? or what could be wrong...just what i needed wit my dsm...more problems...

thanks :dsm:

could be the motor/tranny mounts, busted or bent axle?

well the problem will go away once i get the car over 3k rpms..
also ive been having trouble getting the car to go into reverse on the first couple of tries..and when i shift into 4th as soon as i take my foot up off the clutch it will sometimes pop out and grind...
 
as far as your shifter popping out of gear i would say your tranny is probably gone or on the the way, could be synchros, but i would say its almost toast. my buddies integra was doing this and it was his clutch so check the clutch, synchros, then the tranny.

i dunno about the vibrations though
 
alright...thanks everyone for your replies...im in college now so i cant do much of anything but the car is just sitting, so as soon as i get back to jersey i can look at everything.. :dsm:
