"grinding" feel as first gear engages from a stop
Sunday, May 01, 2005 10:40 PM
The title pretty much says it all. When I start from a dead stop I can feel (and hear) a quick bark. It only does it in first gear, only from a dead-stop, and only AFTER the clutch is fully engaged.

Any ideas what is causing this or how to correct it?

Sounds like the extremely common Getrag "pennies in a can" noise...

I don't think anyone's found a fix for it. To my knowledge, it's not a problem though... no adverse affects other then the noise. There's a MASSIVE post on it somewhere around here.

Pennies in a can! Yes, that is exactly what it sounds like. Well, as long as it's not a damage issue, then I won't worry about it. Thanks man.
