DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Manual Transmission and Clutch
Inspection and Verification
It is important to get an accurate description of the concern before any diagnosis can be carried out.
Ask questions as to whether it occurs when hot or cold, during shifting, driving at a particular speed or
in a particular gear. If possible, have the customer demonstrate the concern.
zWith the vehicle at a complete stop, shift through all the gears and evaluate the noise at
different engine rpm. Check for any noises in NEUTRAL at different engine rpm.

z NOTE: While verifying
the condition, determine
whether the noise is gear
rollover noise, release
bearing rub or some
other transmission-
related noise. Gear
rollover noise, inherent in
manual transmissions, is
caused by the constant
mesh gears turning at the
engine idle speed while
the clutch is engaged and
the transmission is in
NEUTRAL. Release
bearing rub is sometimes
mistaken for mainshaft
bearing noise. Gear
rollover noise will
disappear when the
clutch is disengaged or
when the transmission is
engaged in gear. z

lubricant. Klj . 3 ba
