Anyone of you 5 speeders gets this loud knocking noise when reversing. Is that normal. The clucth is new, be on for about 1100 miles. Hmm maybe i should mention i'm leaking oil just a lil bit. (clutch oil)

 

Clutch Oil? Do you mean clutch fluid (brake fluid which engages clutch) or transmission fluid (thick oil that lubricates the internals of the transmission)?

Almost every manual and some autos too car I have been in had a whining or some kind noise when reversing. This may or may not be the noise you are talking about. I can't think of a knocking that would come from reversing.

 

never heard a knocking sound. Does it increase as you reverse faster?

Do you still hear it say if you reverse, but clutch in, and are still going backwards?

 

Brake fluid from a hose that connects to one of the cylinders, I'm afraid i might have to change it.

The noise appears when i press the clutch in, put it in reverse then release slowly. If i release all the way and press the gas a lil, i hear the regular whinning reverse noise, if not i hear sort of like a tapping, metal against plastic or something like that.
