Wierd sound in neutral? - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Red_Stang · 08-13-2009, 10:18 AM

lately my trans has been making a wierd knocking type of sound coming from under the car, im guessing the trans, when the car is in netral. it doesnt make it right away upon start up it takes about 10 minutes. it makes it when the car is idling in neutral and goes away as soon as i step on the clutch or rev the engine a little. any thoughts? has new centerforce dual friction clutch and new centerforce throwout bearing i also cut the flywheel.

Spec stage 2 & aluminum flywheel here, same noise..

It's the throwout bearing chattering away.. don't worry about it, it's a common issue.
