    t56 making noise HELP!!!!!!!!!

    i did the tranny swap 2 years ago and have had no problems. untill last week. when i take off and ride the clutch a little it grinds and makes a crap load of noise. its in any gear at any speed. this happens with the clutch about 3/4 of the way out. the throwout bearing is a little noisey, but not making the noise im hearing. but when it makes noise u can feel it through the whole tranny.

    im thinking maybee its the pilot bearing?????

    possibly you wont know until you pull it apart to see if its something in the throw out bearing/slave/ clutch assembly.... youll be very lucky if its there. if not you know shes got to get torn for more monies

    check yoru ATF level, if your low you can be putting to much stress on the gears once clutch is engaged.

    T56 takes 3.8 qts i run 4 qts in mine to help with the sloushing
