Gambit Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Cheers mate appropriate the offer going to have a look see what the cost is for another box I guess I should get the code first. And I just had a slight crunch into 4th gear stants wasn't overly bad but annoying so unless I was on boost I used to just go 5th gear and back too fourth that way it didnt crunch. I had put some mollyslip in helped a little but think its given up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Cheers I'll have a look roumd first then try all the usual suspects might give them a call too Monday. It's still driving but sound's awful so might get it down to my local garage if I can for them to have a look on the ramps. But I'd put my life on it its the gearbox.

Gambit Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Well I'm starting to think its diff related or part of it as ive just put it in the garage it was rattling whem moving I could select gears easy enough. It did seem to lock though as I was trying to pull forward before lunging again like it was something sizing. So still non the wiser really. I'll try get a mechanic out so I dont need to drive it. Can see me doing more damage than good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Does it make a noise in every gear if so is it any louder if you accelerate , decelerate or in idle I've got a r160 3.5.4 uk ratio diff here gambit shame you're a bit far away . Hope you get it sorted bud Er hum...... 6speed[emoji4] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Don't do a 6 speed conversion be different do an auto conversion :-D -- I make Films and Website for people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 To be fair the six speed was a thought but I've always said to myself I'd get an sti for anything more in power. I'd say the noise when I was driving sound more constant at higher speed when it did it. Like the noise of metal scraping under it. I was expecting to see the gearbox dragging it's !Removed! until I changed gear. Definitely in every gear revers too. No noise at all on idle because that was my first thoughts when it went was bigend. The other reason I thought diff. But could be wrong was the like locking it did when in gear it would drive at slow speed in the yard would come to a stop myself to turn but it was like the brakes had locked on then shoot forward all of a sudden. I am only guessing though. Only thing I'm sure its with in the gear box area haha [emoji1] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 If a gear or dif cog breaks any bits of metal that break off can get stuck between other cogs causing it to "jam" and lock up the wheels . at least you've got another one .....

Gambit Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Thanks yeah what I thought my4th gear has been bad for some time had no real warning if you get any fromca diff going so it's that that has kept me wondering. And this one's my baby I don't like to see her all sick [emoji22] but to be fair the other one doesn't even get driven hardly at all get the shock of its life lol.
