I have a 1996 Maxima SE 5spd 130,000 miles- when I put the car in gear and accelerate I get a weird sort of wrapping sound in the front end, but when I take the car out of gear or engage the clutch it goes away, but I get this sound while decelerating too when the engine is engaged. Any idea's?

 

anyone? anyone?

 

u got a 5spd sounds like the diff. bearing inside ur tranny had the same probelm take to a mechanic and check it out. tranny rebuilt will run u 800-1200. or get a used tranny if it is the tranny bearing problem

 

I'd hate to think its the dif. bearing, because my tranny has a TON of miles 130K, i thought this popped up at like 60K? Comments anyone?

 

mine had 141k and it was diff bearing

 

hmm really, what kinda sound should it be malking, everyone says it should be a whine, but mines more like a wrapping sound. like tap,tap tap tap tap tap...

 

could be ur diff or u need new clutch

 

Thanks guys, I narrowed it down to the tranny, I'll be dropping it off monday for a rebuild and then next weekend the supercharger goes in.
