Gearbox noise

[clutch]

Hey all, im having an issue with my gearbox at the moment, its making a rather funny noise, like some sort of power tool, it sorta sounds normal and i thought that cos its a 93 model, but this morning it didnt do it in first gear twice and did it in the other gears like always. So now i know something it up, i cant realy explain the noise but its like a realy realy fast pased dadadadada

has anyone had or have the same issue? Dooes it sound like the oil needs changing in the gearbox? Any ideas are welcome

its a 93 civic eg vti

does it only happen when the car is cold, and does it go away when it gets to operating temperature?

when was the last time you changed the gearbox oil?

does it crunch,? bearing?

[clutch]

ummm, im not sure, but it went away twice in first gear after about 20 mins of driving, before that it always made the noise.

reverse crunches occasionaly, but nothing else.

not sure on oil i just bought the car, i am changing this weekend, i hope its not dry and im doing alot of damage

do you get a whining sound when moving in Reverse gear when the car is cold?

[clutch]

Not sure will test it out, but duznt reverse make that whine noise as normal? Wat sort of whine are u talking about?

[riruiz_88]

my bad didnt explain properly, when your in Reverse dose it buzz when you slowly reversing like something is trying to spin but is struggling?
any noises when you press the clutch in?

[clutch]

umm no the reverse makes the typical loud whine, but no other noises, and there is no noise when I press the clutch in! im changing the fuilds tonight also, will keep you all posted.

changing the fluid is the first thing to do, and while you drop the fluid, check whether there are metal bits as well or not.

those bits can be from ur synchros and things.

Noisey input shaft bearing is your problem

Gearbox is being switched over today! Hopefuly all goes smoothly!

Noisey input shaft bearing is your problem

Correct.. ive got the same problem as well, press the clutch and the noise is there and when released the whirling noise comes back.
Pray that the other box thats going in doesnt have the same problem as your previous box.

Its very annoying .. anyone know if changing fluids will quiet down the noise at least for now ?
