Hey guys,

Been happening on and off since i got the car mid last year.
The noise im hearing is a rumbling/shuttering noise.. sounds like its coming from right under my seat. Only seems to happen when the wheels loose traction (in the wet) or on the odd occasion when my foot slips off the clutch when changing down gear.

Ive looked around and some people say its the bottom mainshaft bearing. (where the little ball bearings scatter because the inserts have gone)

Not causing any problems but it annoys the sh*t out of me.

Cheers,
Newbie
