this is related to the other thread in here i started about fixing a trans. Basically when i start driving in 1st and 2nd and sometimes in 3rd gear at around 2-3500k rpms (per gear) i'll hear a scraping/scratching noise, similar to metal dragging on the ground or car bottoming out, but its coming directly from the trans. It has no effect on performance but i took it to a trans shop and they couldnt tell me what was wrong. Has anyone ever dealt with something like this?
 
well i guess it doesnt matter what exactly teh problem is anyway. The whole fee is the labor to open the trans up. o well i'll be down 500-1k $

:mad: This same thing is wrong with my car. When i rev the car up to about 2000 rpm in neutral, with the clutch out, it makes the same noise, but when i press the clutch pedal down, the noise stops. It also does it when the car is in gear!! What the hell is this noise??:confused:
