here is the deal: i have gear noise coming from my tranny..sounds like it has no oil but it does.. i changed my bearing and clutch 2 weeks ago so it is not the bearing. Some told me though that it is my final gear going out. It whines really bad in Reverse (it is a 5spd) and all the gears. It sounds like something is grinding all the time but when i have the gas pedal in a certain spot it does not whine. I have bought this car 2yrs ago (about 20k) and it was doing this the same when i got it. What should i do? Is it my tranny going out?

It sounds like the output shaft bearing. Have your own tranny rebuilt or repaired. Or get a used one from a junker. You may be able to get by with just an output bearing and some synro rings on your old trany. I had mine replaced with a rebuilt one from mantrans, I would not do that again. I got 165,000 miles on the original tranny. I would sooner have had my old one fixed locally and maybe just had an output bearing and synkro rings replaced. Good luck.

how much would that cost? and this is damaging my tranny by driving like this, right?
