Drive train noise help needed.
1990 2.9, 5 speed manual. 150,000 miles. Fluid recently changed in tranny.
No noise when accelerating or slowing down, only when in a *coasting/neutral load* condition. A rumble when I let off on the gas but before I slow down, almost like a universal joint noise but they checked out ok.
As I come to a slow stop I have a little mechanical noise, not engine or brake related, until I stop. Tire wear is normal, just balanced.
Front wheel bearings checked, ok, and lubed. Rear wheel bearing condition unknown.
Has new clutch, new throwout bearing, brakes removed and checked out ok.
Tranny shifts ok but I seem to remember people talking about input bearing problems with these.... I have not checked that.....
So what do you think the noise might be?
