    420A Awful grinding from transmission

    After some hard driving last night my transmission started making an awful racket so I took the starter off and found that every flywheel bolt came loose but after tightening them up the noise hasn’t stopped, it shifts great through every gear and makes the same noise with and without the...

    2G Grinding noise when accelerating

    I have tried to look this one up in previous threads but couldn't get an answer from other owners as to what their problem was... I have a grinding noise mostly in 2nd and especially 3rd gear at around 3000rpm when accelerating, or when at 3000 in general. Noise stops when clutch is pushed in...

    2G Noise near timing gear area.

    I had just bought this DSM, 79,000 miles, test drove it, ran fine. When I got it home, I took it out for a spin and started losing power and started making the noise you see in the video. I have all the basic belts off to eliminate those items, and it still makes the horrible sound.Timing gears...

When in 1st gear if you start to let the clutch out the transmission will pop out of gear and sometimes grind. It used to be...
  7. 2G Grinding or rattle noise around timing belt and head

    After doing some searching on here I'm thinking it might be a balance shaft, bearing, or tensioner going bad. The noise can be described as either light grinding or a rapid rattle. It's definitely localized near the timing belt area, at first I thought it was coming from under the valve cover...
